Tax-Lien Foreclosure Recovery

You May Be Owed Foreclosure Surplus Funds.

Tax-lien foreclosure overages often go unclaimed. We recover your surplus funds — at no upfront cost.

Understanding Your Rights

What Is a Tax-Lien Overage?

When a property is sold at a tax-lien auction, the county collects what it's owed in back taxes. But if the home sells for more than the amount owed, the difference — called the overage or surplus — legally belongs to the former owner.

Most people never know this money exists. The county isn't required to notify you, and the funds can be claimed by others if you don't act in time. Deadlines vary by state — some as short as one year after the sale.

We specialize in locating these overages, navigating the claims process, and recovering what's rightfully yours — with no upfront cost to you.

"The county collected what it was owed — the rest belongs to you."
No Upfront Cost

You pay nothing unless we successfully recover your funds. Our fee comes from the overage itself.

Proven Process

We handle every step — research, paperwork, and county filings — so you don't have to.

Fast Results

Most cases are resolved within 30–90 days. We move quickly because deadlines matter.

Act Before It's Too Late

Don't Let Your Money Disappear.

Overage claims have deadlines. The sooner you act, the better your chances of recovery. Many former homeowners lose their right to collect simply because they didn't know the clock was ticking.

  • When a property is sold at a tax-lien auction for more than the amount owed in back taxes, the difference is called an overage or surplus. By law, this money belongs to the former property owner — not the county. Most people never know it exists because counties are not required to proactively notify you.

  • If your property was sold at a tax-lien auction and the sale price exceeded the taxes owed, there may be an overage waiting for you. The best way to find out is to submit your case for a free review. We research the auction records and county filings to determine if funds are available.

  • Nothing upfront. We work on a contingency basis — we only get paid if we successfully recover funds on your behalf. Our fee is a percentage of the recovered amount, agreed upon before we begin. If we don't recover anything, you owe us nothing.

  • Most cases are resolved within 30 to 90 days, depending on the county and the complexity of the claim. Some straightforward cases can be completed in as little as 30 days. We move quickly because overage claims have deadlines — acting sooner always improves your chances.
