Step-by-Step Timeline From Auction to Check
Every case is unique, but most foreclosure surplus claim timelines follow the same general stages. County Assets Recovery focuses on making each step as straightforward as possible for you.
1. Auction ends: After the foreclosure or tax sale auction, the county determines if there are surplus funds left over after paying what was owed. If there is money remaining, it is typically held by the county or court until a rightful claimant steps forward.
2. Research and verification: County Assets Recovery reviews county and court records to confirm whether surplus funds exist and who may be legally entitled to them. We work to identify former homeowners and, when needed, their heirs or other rightful claimants.You were a co-owner listed on the deed at the time of foreclosure
3. Initial contact and explanation: If our research confirms that you may be entitled to surplus funds, County Assets Recovery reaches out to explain the opportunity, outline the process, and answer your questions. We clarify what information and documents will be needed from you and how our contingency-based service works.
4. Document collection and claim preparation: We help you gather and complete the documentation the county requires. This may include proof of identity and any other records needed to establish your right to the funds. County Assets Recovery prepares the formal claim paperwork for submission.
5. Filing the claim with the county: Once everything is ready, County Assets Recovery files the claim on your behalf with the appropriate county office or court. We make sure your claim is properly submitted according to local procedures.
6. County review and processing: The county reviews the claim, may request clarification or additional documentation, and then makes a decision about disbursing funds. During this time, County Assets Recovery tracks the status of your claim and responds to any county requests.
7. Approval and disbursement of funds: If the claim is approved, the county issues payment of the surplus funds. County Assets Recovery stays involved until the check is issued and the funds are disbursed. You receive your share of the funds according to the contingency agreement, with no upfront fees paid by you.
