What Are Surplus Funds and Excess Proceeds from Foreclosure?

When a foreclosed or tax-delinquent property is sold, it may sometimes sell for more than the debt, taxes, and related costs owed. The amount left over is often referred to as surplus funds, excess proceeds, foreclosure overage, or property overages. These funds may legally belong to the former owner or their heirs.

In many cases, these surplus funds and excess proceeds do not automatically go to the county forever. They may still be claimable by the former owner or, in some situations, the owner's legal heirs or estate. Because the process can involve research, documentation, and strict filing deadlines, many people never realize they may have unclaimed money available to claim.
