Excess funds are created during a foreclosure or tax sale when a property is sold for more than the total amount owed to satisfy the liens and debts secured by the property. Here's a concise summary of the process and the owner's potential claim:

Creation of Excess Funds:

  • When a property is sold at auction, the sale proceeds first go toward paying off any outstanding liens, unpaid mortgages, and associated costs (e.g., legal fees, interest).
  • If the sale generates more money than required to settle all debts and expenses, the remaining amount is referred to as "excess funds" or "surplus funds."

Priority of Distribution:

  • Excess funds are distributed in the order of lien priority. For example, a primary mortgage is paid before subordinate liens, such as second mortgages or home equity loans.
  • After all valid claims are paid, any remaining funds belong to the property owner prior to the sale.

Owner's Claim to Excess Funds:

  • If no other liens or unpaid mortgages are due, the former owner may have the right to claim the remaining funds.
  • To claim the funds, the owner typically needs to file a formal request with the court or the appropriate agency handling the sale, providing documentation to prove their entitlement.

Unclaimed State Funds

Unclaimed state funds, also known as unclaimed property, arise when businesses, financial institutions, or other entities hold assets that belong to individuals or organizations but lose contact with them. Common scenarios include:

  1. Dormant Accounts: Bank accounts, savings accounts, or investment accounts that have had no activity for a certain period.
  2. Uncashed Checks: Paychecks, tax refunds, or vendor payments that remain uncashed.
  3. Abandoned Insurance Benefits: Life insurance payouts or refunds that aren’t claimed.
  4. Forgotten Utility Deposits: Refunds for utilities or services left unclaimed.

States require these entities to turn over the funds after a dormancy period, where they are held as unclaimed property until the rightful owner claims them.

Bankruptcy Surplus

A bankruptcy surplus occurs when the assets of a debtor are liquidated during bankruptcy proceedings and the total proceeds exceed the amount needed to pay off all claims and creditors. This surplus can arise in the following ways:

  1. Successful Asset Sale: When the sale of the debtor’s property or business generates more money than required to satisfy creditors' claims.
  2. Overestimated Liabilities: When liabilities turn out to be less than originally estimated, leaving excess funds after all creditors are paid in full.

Once creditors are fully satisfied, the bankruptcy surplus is returned to the debtor or, in some cases, to equity holders, depending on the type of bankruptcy.
