Helping property owners recover unclaimed real estate equity.

We assist former property owners and heirs in recovering excess proceeds remaining after foreclosures and tax sales.

Surplus funds recovery is the process of claiming the excess money left over after a property is sold at a foreclosure or tax deed auction. If a home sells for more than the mortgage debt and associated fees, this remaining equity legally belongs to the former homeowner or junior lienholders, but it must be formally claimed from the court.

What Is Surplus Funds Recovery?

Surplus funds recovery is a legal process that helps property owners and heirs claim money that rightfully belongs to them but remains unclaimed with the court.

  • Former Homeowners: Those who lost property in foreclosure but had equity that went unclaimed
  • Heirs: Beneficiaries of properties that were foreclosed or sold at tax deed auction
  • Junior Lienholders: Those who had secondary claims on the property

Eligibility depends on applicable laws and court requirements. Each jurisdiction has specific procedures and timeframes.
