Frequently Asked Questions
What are surplus funds?
Surplus funds are excess proceeds that may remain after a foreclosure sale, tax sale, or other qualifying property sale once required debts and expenses have been paid. Depending on the circumstances, those funds may be owed to a former property owner or eligible heir.
How do I know if surplus funds may belong to me?
Bridge Path Equity reviews available public records to identify potential surplus funds associated with a property. We can then help determine whether you may be eligible to pursue a claim.
Do I pay anything upfront?
No. There are no upfront research fees. Our compensation is success-based and is earned only when funds are successfully recovered on your behalf.
How long does the recovery process take?
Timing varies depending on the type of funds, county requirements, required documentation, and processing times. We keep you informed throughout the process.
Can heirs claim surplus funds?
In some circumstances, eligible heirs or beneficiaries may have a right to claim funds associated with a deceased property owner. Eligibility and documentation requirements vary depending on the specific situation.
What information do you need from me?
To begin, we typically need your name, contact information, and the former property address or any available property or county details. Additional documentation may be requested if needed.
