Frequently Asked Questions

What are surplus funds, and where do they come from?

When a real estate property goes through a foreclosure or tax sale auction, the bidding often reaches an amount higher than the outstanding debt or unpaid taxes. The extra money left over after satisfying the original judgment is called a surplus fund (or excess proceeds). By law, these funds belong to the former property owner.

Why hasn't the county sent me this money automatically?

Local courts and county treasurers hold millions of dollars in unclaimed auction proceeds in state registries. While they hold the money, government offices rarely track down former owners who have relocated. Unless an official claim motion is formally filed, these funds sit dormant in county accounts and may eventually revert to the state.

How much does your service cost upfront?

Zero. We operate strictly on a contingency basis. We cover 100% of the research, skip tracing, administrative fees, and attorney expenses required to file the court claim. You pay nothing out of pocket. We only collect a fee (typically 15% to 20%) if and when we successfully recover and deliver your funds.

How do I know this isn't a scam?

Transparency is our priority. Before signing anything, we provide you with the exact court case number, the county holding your money, and the documented surplus balance on record. We never ask for bank routing details, up-front retainer fees, or wire transfers. All disbursements are handled securely through a licensed real estate attorney's state-monitored IOLTA trust account.

Do I need to go to court or hire my own lawyer?

No. Our team coordinates directly with local real estate attorneys in your property's jurisdiction. They prepare all required motions, handle court filings, and represent the claim in front of the judge on your behalf. You simply review and sign the recovery authorization form digitally.

How long does it take to get my money?

The timeline ranges from 30 to 90 days from the day you sign the recovery agreement. The exact speed depends on county processing times, statutory notice periods (often 30 days by state law), and court hearing schedules.
