How We Recover Your Money
From the moment you reach out to the day funds hit your account, we handle every step. Here's exactly what happens.
What Is an Overage?
When a property is sold at a tax sale or foreclosure auction, it often sells for more than the amount owed in back taxes or the mortgage balance. That extra money — the overage — legally belongs to the former property owner.
In many states, these funds are held by the county or court for a limited time. If no one claims them, the government keeps the money. Most people never know the funds exist — and that's exactly the problem we solve.
Overage funds are legally yours. The government is required to hold them — but only for so long.
