We work with clients across the United States and with the county and state agencies that hold their funds.
Contact us →When property is sold at a tax sale for more than the taxes owed, or when money owed to someone goes unclaimed, the government holds it. If the rightful owners never learn about it, they can lose it.
Agencies usually give notice only through a newspaper listing or a letter to the last address on file. We contact owners by mail and phone, in line with local rules, to let them know about funds held in their name and help them claim it.

We research county and state records to identify funds that may belong to you and confirm the amount and the agency holding them.
How it works →
Every agency has its own forms and proof requirements. We prepare and file your claim so it meets them.
How it works →
For more complex cases, such as heirs or multiple owners, we map out what the agency needs and guide you through each step.
How it works →If you received a call or letter from us, we have found records showing that a government agency may be holding money that belongs to you, for example surplus funds left over after a tax sale. We contact owners because agencies often only publish a notice or mail a letter to an old address.
Common examples are surplus (excess) proceeds from a tax sale or foreclosure sale, unclaimed property, and refunds that were never paid out. We identify these funds and help you with the claim.
Yes. You may be able to claim directly from the agency holding the funds without paying anyone. Many owners choose us because each agency has its own forms, deadlines and proof requirements, and we handle that work for you.
Nothing up front and nothing out of pocket. We work on a contingency basis: we are paid an agreed percentage only if your funds are recovered. If nothing is recovered, you owe us nothing. The fee is set out in writing before any work begins.
