How it works

Why could money be left behind?

Because a foreclosed property can sell for more than what was owed.

After the mortgage, taxes, liens, and other required costs are paid, money may still be left from the sale. That remaining money is often called surplus or excess funds and may belong to the former owner or, in some cases, their heirs.

Not every foreclosure or tax sale results in excess funds.

  1. Property sold
  2. Amounts owed are paid
  3. Money may remain
  4. Former owner or heir may qualify

Before you refer

What makes a good referral?

This program is not intended for someone who simply chose to sell their property normally.

  • You know the person you’re referring, and they know Royal Recovery may contact them.
  • Their property was sold through foreclosure, tax sale, or another qualifying forced property sale.
  • You can provide enough information for us to identify the person and property.

Don’t know the case number, exact sale date, or whether money is available? That’s okay. We’ll research it.
