Surplus Refunds
Money owed to you after a foreclosure or tax sale.
When a property sells at foreclosure or tax auction for more than the debt owed, the difference, the surplus, belongs to the former owner. Most people never know it exists. We help you find it and claim it.
What Are Surplus Funds?
Billions of dollars sit unclaimed in county treasuries.
After a home is sold at a foreclosure or tax deed auction, the county pays off the mortgage, taxes, and fees. Anything left over, often tens of thousands of dollars, is legally owed to the previous owner.
Counties are required to hold these funds, but they don't chase you down. Deadlines vary by state. If nobody files a claim, the money is quietly escheated back to the government.
Our sister company, Liberty Refunding, is built specifically to recover these funds on your behalf. No upfront fees. If we don't collect, you don't pay.
