Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers about eligibility, timelines, and how the recovery process works.

Who can claim surplus funds?+

Typically, the former property owner or their legal heirs are eligible to claim the remaining funds after all lienholders and other debts have been settled.

Can I handle the claim on my own?+

Yes. You can file the necessary paperwork and follow the court's process yourself. However, working with a surplus recovery specialist often makes the process stress-free.

How long does it take to get the funds?+

Receiving the funds typically takes between 30 and 90 days, depending on the state and the speed of the local court process. Some cases may take a bit longer, but we'll keep you informed every step of the way.

Why didn't I know about these funds?+

Counties usually send notification letters to the address of the foreclosed property. If you no longer lived there after the sale, you likely missed this notice.

Is this legitimate?+

Yes. We're dedicated to helping people recover money that rightfully belongs to them. We never charge upfront fees and only get paid if your claim is successful. We also provide official documentation from the county or state proving you may be entitled to these funds.

Are heirs entitled to surplus funds if the property owner is deceased?+

Absolutely. If the property owner has passed, eligible heirs can still recover surplus funds. The process may require proof of relationship or a probate filing, but we're here to guide you through every step.

How much do you charge?+

Our fees vary depending on the complexity of the case. Rest assured, our pricing is always fair and reasonable.

Do I need to hire my own attorney?+

No. Our nationwide network of attorneys prepares, notarizes, and files your claim on your behalf as part of our service.
