Money may remain after a property sale. It may belong to you.
US Property Recovery helps former property owners, heirs, estates, and other potential claimants investigate and pursue possible funds left after foreclosure, tax, sheriff, and court-supervised property sales.
We are not lawyers. There are no upfront recovery fees. You owe us no recovery fee unless we successfully recover funds for you.

Could funds be waiting?
A foreclosure sale does not always end with the debt.
When a property sells for more than the amounts authorized to be paid from the sale, money may remain for an eligible claimant.
The exact process depends on the type of sale, state law, ownership records, liens, court orders, and whether the former owner is living or deceased. Many people never pursue possible funds because notices went to an old address, ownership changed, or the claim process feels unfamiliar.
- Your home or property was sold through foreclosure.
- A relative who owned the property has died.
- You received a notice mentioning surplus, excess, overage, or unclaimed funds.
- You believe the sale price exceeded the debts and authorized expenses.

A straightforward process
Research first. Clear communication throughout.
Tell us about the property
Submit the address, former owner, sale information, and any notice you have.
We review available records
We investigate public property, sale, ownership, and court information to identify possible funds and issues.
We explain the next steps
If the matter appears viable, we discuss the proposed recovery service and written agreement.
Payment follows successful recovery
You owe us no recovery fee unless funds are successfully recovered for you.
Heirs and family claims
The former owner may be gone, but a potential claim may remain.
When a former owner has died, heirs, an estate representative, or another successor may still have a potential claim. These matters often require more documentation and may involve probate, succession, competing heirs, liens, or other legal questions.
US Property Recovery can provide research and administrative claim support. We do not decide legal rights or provide legal advice. When legal representation is required, you should work with an independently licensed attorney.

Important distinction
We are a recovery service—not a law firm.
What that means for you
We research possible funds, help organize documents, and provide administrative recovery support when permitted. We do not give legal advice, represent you in court, or create an attorney-client relationship.
Some claims require a court filing, probate or succession work, lien disputes, contested hearings, or legal interpretation. In those situations, you may need an independent licensed attorney.
You may also be able to pursue available funds yourself directly through the organization holding them without hiring us.
Facing foreclosure now?
We do not provide foreclosure defense—but knowing what may happen after the sale can still matter.
US Property Recovery does not stop foreclosure, negotiate loans, provide bankruptcy advice, or represent property owners in court. Anyone currently facing foreclosure should promptly consult a qualified attorney or approved housing counselor about deadlines and available options.
If the property is later sold and surplus funds remain, a separate claim process may be available.
Common questions
Start with the basics
How do I know whether surplus funds exist?
Sale results, payoff information, court records, and the funds holder's records may help answer that question. Submit what you know and we can begin an initial review.
Is there an upfront charge?
No. There is no upfront recovery fee. If you retain us under a written agreement, a recovery fee is owed only when funds are successfully recovered, subject to that agreement and applicable law.
Are you attorneys?
No. US Property Recovery is not a law firm and does not provide legal advice or legal representation.
Can I claim funds without hiring a recovery company?
Possibly. Depending on the funds holder and claim, you may be able to apply directly. We encourage informed decisions and do not suggest that hiring us is required.
