Unclaimed Funds We Help Recover
We recover a wide range of unclaimed funds, including:
Bankruptcy
Unclaimed Tax Refunds
Refunds that were issued but never received or cashed by the taxpayer. This can include federal and state tax refunds.
Uncashed Checks
This includes payroll checks, dividends, or refunds from various companies that went uncashed.
Insurance Policies and Benefits
Life insurance payouts, health insurance refunds, and other insurance benefits left unclaimed.
Retirement Accounts
Unclaimed IRAs, 401(k)s, and pensions where the owner has moved, passed away, or forgotten about the account.
Utility Deposits and Refunds
Deposits from utility companies or refunds from utility overpayments that were never claimed.
Securities and Dividends
Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or dividends that were forgotten or not claimed by the owner.
Safe Deposit Boxes
Contents of safe deposit boxes that go unclaimed for years may be turned over to the state.
Gift Cards and Store Credits
Some gift cards or credits from retailers go unused, which can eventually become unclaimed property if they aren’t cashed in.
Class Action Settlements
Money set aside from class action lawsuits for individuals who qualify for compensation but haven’t claimed it.
Inheritance and Estates
Assets left in wills or trusts that remain unclaimed because the beneficiary is unaware or cannot be located.
Bank Accounts
Dormant checking, savings, and CD accounts that haven’t been touched for a long time.
Specialized Asset Recovery
we excel in recovering surplus funds from property auctions, tax sales, and estates:
01
Surplus Funds:
Funds left over after an asset is sold, usually at an auction or foreclosure sale, to cover a debt. If the asset sells for more than the debt owed, the surplus funds are due to the previous owner.
02
Excess Proceeds
Often associated with tax deed or foreclosure sales, this is the remaining money after the sale covers the owed taxes or mortgage balance. The previous property owner may be entitled to claim these excess funds.
03
Excess Funds
Similar to excess proceeds, these funds are the balance remaining after a foreclosure or auction sale, specifically after all liens and debts have been settled.
04
Tax Deed Overage
When a property is sold at a tax deed sale for more than the tax debt, the difference, known as the “overage,” is owed to the original property owner. This type of unclaimed fund arises frequently in cases of unpaid property taxes.
05
Balance Bid
Another term for excess or surplus funds from an auction or sale, particularly those from a foreclosure. If the sale bid is higher than the owed balance, the “balance bid” can be claimed by the former property owner.
06
Sheriff’s Sale Proceeds
Funds generated from a sheriff’s sale (often used to satisfy court judgments or unpaid debts) that exceed the debt owed can be claimed by the original owner or lienholder.
07
Unclaimed Funds from a Deceased’s Estate
If someone dies without known heirs or with assets not claimed by listed heirs, these funds become part of unclaimed property held by the state. Heirs can sometimes claim these funds, or the state will hold them indefinitely.
