What Are These Funds?

When property is sold because of delinquent property taxes, the final sale price may exceed the taxes, costs, and other amounts required to be satisfied.

Depending on state law and the facts of the case, excess proceeds may remain available for eligible parties.

We help research the sale, available records, potential entitlement, and procedures associated with pursuing those funds.

Why Do These Funds Exist?

Tax sales are designed to recover unpaid taxes and related costs. When bidding exceeds those amounts, the difference may be held as excess proceeds under the rules of the applicable state and county.

Who May Potentially Be Eligible?

  • Former owners of record
  • Lienholders, depending on priority
  • Heirs and estates
  • Other parties recognized by applicable law

Why Can Recovery Become Complicated?

Tax sale rules differ significantly between states and counties, including claim windows, priority of interests, and required filings.

Documents That May Be Required

  • Government-issued identification
  • Proof of ownership at time of sale
  • Tax sale or deed information
  • Estate documents, if applicable

Confidential Review

There May Be More to the Record.

If you believe funds may be connected to you, your family, a former property, an estate, a bankruptcy matter, or another financial matter, the first step is understanding what the records actually show.
