It’s wise to plan for all of life’s eventualities. And even though we might not like to think about it, choosing our cemetery plots touches on an eventuality for all of us. There is plenty of wisdom in an arrangement where decisions are made and expenses are paid for ahead of time and in an affordable way. The benefits reach both the person doing the prearranging and also those that are left behind.
1) Location Decisions
Choosing the optimum burial location can be important. This is true of the actual location as well as the spot within the property. Opt for a location that has genealogical significance to you or is in a convenient spot, maybe your hometown or an area central to your whole family. Consider whether family members will have decent access and whether or not your selection will lean towards a spiritual or religious focus.
Pre-purchasing a cemetery plot allows you to choose a specific spot with a favorite view, in a peaceful garden or near other memorials for family and friends.
2) Eliminate Stress
Perhaps the largest benefit of purchasing cemetery plots ahead of time is saving your surviving family from having to make this decision on top of everything else. In the beginning stages of the grieving period people are vulnerable and emotional which can make this decision difficult. Save your family the hassle and take the time to make decisions that reflect who you are. You’ll enjoy the fact that doing so is an extremely helpful and loving gesture to your family.
3) Greater Choice
It stands to reason that when you are arranging these things ahead of time your selection will cover a broader range of cemetery plots. Base that selection on what you can realistically afford and be sure to take all of your options into account. Have a rock solid arrangement with the aftercare organizations and keep those papers in a secure place.
4) Invest Today
Purchasing cemetery plots today can effectively put a stop to inflation. You’ll be buying the land and services at today’s costs and will be protected from price increases, any adjustments in currency values and changes in your own financial status. You’ll actually be purchasing a physical investment that will retain its value, both in monetary and emotional terms. Think of it as an investment in your estate that will be well preserved over time.
Preplanned cemetery plot arrangements can also be financed over a very reasonable period of time, making this investment well within the reach of everyone, regardless of their income level.
5) With Privacy and Dignity
Today you can make pre-planning decisions from the privacy of your own home, taking your spouse and children’s opinions into account if desired. It’s a much more relaxed selection that is done with dignity and without the intimidation and pressure that you may have felt in the past.
Whether you do it for your family and friends, as a wise investment or for your own dignity and privacy, pre-planning your choice cemetery plots is smart. Make the call today and enjoy the benefits your decisions will produce.
