Every year millions of people die worldwide without making a will (called dying intestate) often leaving substantial cash and property estates which, if not claimed goes to the state. Worth billions this provides vast income opportunities for people interested in tracing missing beneficiaries to these valuable estates.

Unlike traditional genealogy which traces family lines into the distant past Heir Tracing is seeking living descendant relatives who often have lost touch with their distant kin and in most cases have no idea of their family link.

In many cases there is no obvious heir who will inherit the estate under the rules of intestacy, so clearly there is a need to trace and tell the family members they are in for a windfall. Not only does this news come as a pleasant financial surprise but also unlocks family history and knowledge which proves valuable and interesting to many beneficiaries.

Made popular by the BBC's Heir Hunters program many estate beneficiaries are located by large established research firms, yet a large number of estates remain untraced or are too small to be worthwhile for the larger probate tracing firms. The number of new cases being filed weekly means there is plenty of work, provided you know how to find and work on cases. Note: We are an independent organisation and have no connection with the Heir Hunters TV program.

The Heir Hunters Association has been set up to help;

• Prospective, new and fledgling probate detectives form and establish their own beneficiary tracing business.

• Beneficiaries who have been approached by Heir Hunters and are confused over their rights and the risks involved, in what is still an unregulated business.

• The general public who wish to seek out potential unclaimed estates in case they are related to the deceased. Each week new cases are posted and some claims remain open for many years, many eventually are paid over to the state under intestacy laws.

• Plus the HHA provides ongoing support, knowledge and contacts worldwide with a regular free newsletter.

If you have become interested in this type of business, possibly with some genealogy experience (even just tracing your own family roots) you need vital information only offered by the Heir Hunters Association. Since there are no specific books, web sites or guides to help you directly you can easily loose valuable time and money with the wrong approach and potentially be deterred from forming a successful business for yourself.

You do not need any qualifications or experience, all you need is a logical mind, be well organised and have an eye for detail. You also need tact, diplomacy and sympathy as many contacts you make will be emotional. You can work from home with flexible hours to fit into family life, another business or hobby.

There is no age limit, an ideal retirement interest as many have found. To some the "chase" is more interesting and challenging than it's solution.

Web based information and knowledge is changing daily providing knowledge to help "crack" dormant estates. Solving a case years old can be interesting as well as absorbing, and when solved can bring substantial finance rewards.
