Danny Curran star of BBC1 show Heir Hunters and M.D. of Finders International spoke with Andrew Edwards on BBC Radio Leeds to discuss inheritance matters.

There are currently 173 unclaimed estates in Bristol, according to the latest Bona Vacantia list.

There are almost 200 unclaimed estates up for grabs across the county

There are more than 100 unclaimed estates in Eastbourne, where people have died with no will and no apparent next of kin.

When a distant family relative dies without a will, relatives in line for an inheritance may rely on the work of probate researchers or genealogy companies.

74 unclaimed estates, so far this year, have been added to London’s stock of over 2,500 estates in ‘purgatory’, according to Finders International’s interrogation of the latest Bona Vacantia list. These are estates of people who have died apparently intestate (no Will) and with no known next of kin. Danny Curran, star of BBC Heir Hunters’ firm Finders International said: “These 74 estates are waiting to be claimed from the government, who are sitting on the fortunes of thousands of people across the UK. It is estimated that between ten to 20 percent of these would have had a property constitute part of the estate.”
