Florida Surplus Funds Recovery

Find out if you may be owed money from a foreclosure or tax deed sale in Florida.

After foreclosure and tax deed sales in Florida, surplus funds may remain after a property is sold.

These funds may belong to the former homeowner, heirs, or other eligible parties.

Alliance Property Allies helps property owners identify and recover surplus funds that may still be owed to them.

Florida Surplus Funds Laws

Under Florida law, when a property sells at a foreclosure or tax deed auction for more than the amount owed, the remaining money is called surplus funds.

Florida Statute 45.032 governs surplus funds resulting from foreclosure sales. After the foreclosure sale, the court determines the priority of claims and distributes any remaining funds to eligible parties.

For tax deed sales, Florida Statute 197.582 governs the distribution of surplus funds through the county clerk. Former property owners and lienholders may file claims to recover these funds.

Many property owners are unaware that they may still be entitled to money after a foreclosure or tax deed sale.

In addition, the United States Supreme Court ruled in 2023 (Tyler v. Hennepin County) that governments cannot keep surplus equity after a property is sold to satisfy taxes or debts. Property owners may have a constitutional right to any remaining equity after the sale.
