Common Myths About Surplus Funds

Separating fact from fiction about your foreclosure rights

❌ Myth: "I lost my home, so I lost everything"

Many people believe foreclosure means losing all equity, but this is false.

Fact: If your home sold for more than you owed, the surplus legally belongs to you.

❌ Myth: "I didn't know about the funds, so I can't claim them"

Some think there's a deadline to discover surplus funds, but that's not true.

Fact: You have the right to claim surplus funds regardless of when you learned about them—unless the statutory deadline has passed.

❌ Myth: "The bank kept all the extra money"

Banks and lenders are only entitled to what they're owed, nothing more.

Fact: Any excess funds must be held for the former homeowner, not kept by the lender.

❌ Myth: "I'll have to hire an expensive lawyer"

You could try to claim on your own, but it's complex and time-consuming.

Fact: We work on contingency—you pay nothing unless we recover your funds. No legal fees upfront.

❌ Myth: "I'm too late—my foreclosure was years ago"

While there are deadlines, many people don't realize they still have time.

Fact: In many states, you have several years to claim. But don't wait—deadlines vary by state!

❌ Myth: "Only the homeowner can claim"

Actually, heirs and other parties may also be entitled to claim surplus funds.

Fact: Heirs, spouses, and other interested parties may be eligible to claim in certain situations.

What Are Surplus Funds?

Surplus funds, also known as excess proceeds or "overage," are the amount of money left over after your foreclosed home has been sold at auction and all lenders have been paid. They are essentially the remaining equity that you had in the property.

⚠️ Important: This money belongs to you, but many people don't know they can claim it. Funds may expire if not claimed in time.

Who Should Check for Surplus Funds?

If any of these situations apply to you, you may have unclaimed money waiting

Your Home Was Foreclosed

Whether through mortgage foreclosure or tax sale, if your property was sold, you may have surplus funds.

Foreclosure Was Recent

Recent foreclosures (within 1-5 years) have the best chance of recovery, but older cases may still qualify.

You Inherited Property

Heirs of deceased property owners may be entitled to claim surplus funds from foreclosed properties.

You Had a Second Mortgage

Second mortgage holders and other lienholders may also be entitled to recover surplus funds in certain cases.
