Search the County Directory
Browse 208 counties across 50 states. Filter by state, population, or keyword to find counties with active surplus funds lists.
Review Surplus Funds Lists
Access direct links to official county surplus funds pages. Review property details, amounts, former owner names, and parcel numbers.
Check Deadlines & Eligibility
Each county listing shows the applicable state statute (e.g., CA Rev & Tax Code §4675) and claim deadline. Verify you are within the filing window — typically 1 year for CA, 2 years for TX, 120 days for FL.
Identify the Rightful Claimant
Use our Pro OSINT tools to locate the former property owner or their heirs. Verify addresses, phone numbers, and public records to confirm identity and establish contact.
Prepare Your Claim Package
Download the county claim form (linked from our directory). Gather required documents: proof of identity, recorded deed, assignment of rights (if filing on behalf of owner), and any county-specific forms.
File the Claim with the County
Submit your completed claim package to the county Treasurer-Tax Collector (CA), District Clerk (TX), Clerk of Court (FL), or relevant office. Some counties accept mail; others require in-person filing.
Receive Your Funds
After review (typically 30-90 days), the county distributes funds to approved claimants. In CA, the Board of Supervisors must approve. Some counties have a 90-day dispute period before payment.
