Surplus funds, also known as "overage" or "excess proceeds," refer to the extra money generated when a foreclosed property is sold for more than the total debts attached to it, including the mortgage, taxes, liens, and legal expenses. Many homeowners are unaware that they might be entitled to these funds, or they may not know how to claim them. Surplus funds arise when the amount from the sale of a foreclosed property exceeds the outstanding financial obligations tied to it. For example, if a property is sold for $300,000 but the total debts owed amount to $250,000, the $50,000 difference would be considered surplus funds. These funds belong to the former homeowner or other eligible parties, but recovering them often involves navigating legal and procedural steps.
Once all debts, including the mortgage balance, taxes, and any legal or lien fees, are settled from the sale of the property, the remaining funds are held by a court or trustee until claimed by the rightful owner, typically the previous homeowner or their heirs.
