Frequently Asked Questions
What are excess proceeds?
Excess proceeds are funds that may remain after a qualifying property sale and applicable obligations have been satisfied.
How do I know if I may be entitled to excess proceeds?
Eligibility depends on the property, sale, applicable law, and your ownership or other legally recognized interest. We research available records to help identify potential claims.
Do I have to pay anything upfront?
There are no upfront service fees. Our recovery fee is generally earned only when a successful recovery is completed, subject to the terms of the service agreement and applicable law.
How long does the recovery process take?
Processing times vary depending on the government office, claim requirements, required documentation, and circumstances of the individual claim. Because each claim is different, specific processing times cannot be guaranteed.
What documents might I need?
Requirements vary, but documentation may include proof of identity, evidence of ownership or interest, estate documentation when applicable, and forms required by the appropriate government office.
What if the original property owner has passed away?
Heirs, beneficiaries, estates, or authorized representatives may have a potential interest in excess proceeds. Additional documentation may be required to establish the appropriate claimant's legal interest.
