Your Money
Is Waiting.
If your home was foreclosed and sold at auction for more than you owed, the difference — called foreclosure surplus funds or excess proceeds — legally belongs to you. Most former homeowners never find out, and the unclaimed money disappears. Finding out if you qualify is completely free.
Your property. Your money.
Money left over after your foreclosure
When a lender forecloses on a home and sells it at auction, the sale price sometimes exceeds the total amount owed — including the mortgage balance, fees, and court costs. That leftover amount is called foreclosure surplus funds — also known as excess proceeds, overage funds, or foreclosure overbid money.
The same applies to tax deed sales and trustee sales: whenever a property sells for more than the debt owed, the surplus legally belongs to the former homeowner — not the bank or the county. But most people never find out the money exists, and it eventually gets absorbed by the state's unclaimed property fund.
Aikenhead Recovery Group specializes in locating unclaimed foreclosure surplus funds and recovering them on your behalf — entirely on contingency. You pay nothing until we succeed.
