What Are Surplus Funds?

When your property sells at foreclosure for more than what you owed, you might be entitled to the extra money. These leftover funds (called "surplus funds" or "excess funds") belong to you, not the bank or government.

Many former homeowners don't know this money exists. Banks don't call to tell you about it. The county holds these funds until someone files a proper claim.

Our attorneys help you get what's rightfully yours.

What You Need to Know

Title Search Required 

Before filing a petition for surplus funds, a title search must identify anyone in the chain of title who might have a claim. The court requires proof that no other claims exist on the money.

Possible Claims Against Funds 

Other claims could include judgment liens, tax liens, or unpaid second mortgages. These must be addressed before you can receive payment.

Estate Cases Add Complexity 

If the property belonged to someone who has passed away, we may need to open an estate to distribute funds to rightful heirs.

Have you been contacted by someone offering to help claim your surplus funds?

Many "finders" charge excessive fees for services you don't need. In North Carolina, these individuals must be licensed private investigators, but many operate without proper credentials.

Don't pay extra when you can work directly with attorneys experienced in surplus funds claims.

Ready to Claim What's Yours?

Most claims take 3-6 months to complete. The sooner you start, the sooner you'll receive your funds.
