You may have surplus funds
waiting in your name.

Based on public records, some foreclosure and tax sale cases generate surplus funds—extra money beyond what was owed. Many former homeowners are never clearly notified. We help you check, file, and recover what you're legally entitled to, with no upfront cost.

Attorney-supported filing • No upfront fees • Everything in writing

Sometimes life hits hard. If you've been through a foreclosure or tax sale, you've already carried a lot—paperwork, deadlines, and conversations you may not have had the energy for.

Take a breath.
You're not alone in this.

In many cases, the county or trustee holds extra money from the sale. That money can be a legal right of the former homeowner—but notices are often confusing, delayed, or missed.

That's why we're here: to help you understand what's possible, clearly and respectfully.

Understanding Surplus Funds

Clear Documentation
Legal Rights
Personal Support

When a home is sold at foreclosure or a tax sale, it may sell for more than what was owed. That extra amount is called surplus funds.

In many states, those funds belong to the former homeowner—not the county.

We help by reviewing public records, explaining eligibility in simple terms, and handling the paperwork if you choose to move forward.

A Simple Three Step Path

STEP 1

Free Claim Check

You share a few basic details. We verify if surplus funds exist for your previous property. This step is completely free.

STEP 2

We Handle the Filing

If funds are available, our legal partners prepare and submit the claim on your behalf. You stay updated with real timelines and clear explanations.

STEP 3

You Receive Your Funds

When the claim is approved, you receive your recovered money securely. You never pay upfront. We only receive a fee when your funds are successfully returned.

You stay informed at every step—with clear expectations and everything in writing.

Clear Fees. No Surprises.

You never pay anything upfront.

Our fee is 15%–20% of the surplus funds recovered, depending on the complexity of the claim. We are only paid after funds are successfully returned to you.

If no funds are recovered, you owe nothing.

All fees are explained in writing before you decide.

Real-World Situations We Support

These are not testimonials. These are examples of the kinds of situations homeowners face every day, and how surplus funds can change a difficult moment.

Fresh Start

A family moved out during a stressful foreclosure. They lived with relatives for months, unaware that the sale generated more money than the county needed. Surplus funds helped them afford a fresh start.

Medical Emergency

A homeowner lost their property to a tax sale after falling behind during a medical emergency. They assumed everything was gone. Surplus funds allowed them to pay overdue bills and rebuild with less pressure.

Lost in the Mail

An elderly homeowner relocated after the foreclosure. Mail never reached them. Years later, they learned the county still held money in their name.

These stories are common.

Your situation might be too.
