1. What are surplus funds?

Surplus funds (also called “overages”) are the extra money left over after a property is sold at foreclosure or tax sale for more than what was owed.

2. How does the recovery process work?

Once identified, we file a legal claim on your behalf with the county or state to recover the funds. We handle all the paperwork and communication for you.

3. How long does it take to receive the funds?

Each case is unique, but most clients receive their recovered funds within 60–90 days, depending on the county’s processing time.
