Frequently Asked Questions
We know recovering surplus and unclaimed funds can feel confusing or unexpected — especially if you were never notified that money may be owed to you. These FAQs are here to provide clarity, transparency, and peace of mind throughout the process.
What are surplus or excess proceeds?
When a property is sold at a tax sale or foreclosure, the sale amount may exceed what was owed.
That extra amount is called:
Surplus funds
Excess proceeds
Overages
In many cases, those funds belong to the former property owner or their heirs but they are not automatically released. A claim must be filed correctly and within legal deadlines.
How did you find my information?
We locate potential surplus fund cases using:
Public court records
County and municipal filings
Foreclosure and tax sale reports
We do not purchase or sell personal data.
Your information is used solely for the purpose of determining whether you may be entitled to funds and assisting with your claim.
Why wasn’t I notified about these funds?
In many cases:
Notices are mailed to old addresses
Records are outdated or incomplete
Court notifications are missed
Heirs were never identified
As a result, surplus funds often go unclaimed or remain in court or agency custody until a claim is filed.
Our role is to help ensure you are properly informed and supported through the recovery process.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
No.
We work on a contingency-based model.
That means:
No upfront fees
No out-of-pocket expenses
No payment unless funds are successfully recovered
Our compensation is only earned upon a successful recovery and release of funds.
How long does the recovery process take?
Timeframes vary based on:
Court processing speed
Document requirements
Case complexity
Most cases take 60–120 days, although some may require additional time depending on jurisdiction.
We keep clients informed with status updates throughout the process.
Do I need an attorney?
Some cases require court-approved legal filings.
When appropriate, we may:
Coordinate with licensed attorneys
Ensure filings meet court standards
Support clients through probate or heirship matters
If legal representation is required, it is typically included within the contingency fee structure not paid separately by the client.
Is my information kept confidential?
Yes, absolutely.
We follow strict confidentiality standards:
Secure handling of client records
Limited data access
No information shared without consent
Your privacy and trust are central to our work.
What happens if no funds are recovered?
If a claim is not approved or no funds are released:
You owe nothing
No fees are charged
No costs are billed
We assume the financial risk of processing and filing the claim.
