Surplus funds from foreclosure sales can be a financial lifeline for homeowners, but unfortunately, they also attract scams and predatory recovery firms looking to take advantage of unsuspecting claimants. At Surplus Refund LLC, we prioritize transparency, ethics, and client protection to ensure you claim your funds safely and cost-effectively.
The Rise of Surplus Fund Scams
When a property is foreclosed and sold for more than the amount owed, the extra money—known as surplus funds—belongs to the previous homeowner. However, many homeowners are unaware of their right to claim these funds, making them easy targets for unethical recovery firms. Some common scams include:
Excessive Fees – Some companies charge exorbitant percentages or hidden fees for helping you file a claim.
Upfront Payments – Legitimate firms work on contingency, meaning they get paid only if you recover funds. Scammers often demand money upfront.
False Urgency – Fraudsters pressure homeowners into signing contracts without fully understanding the process.
Impersonation – Some scammers pose as government agencies or attorneys to gain trust and steal your funds.

At Surplus Refund LLC, we are committed to ethical business practices and protecting our clients from bad actors. Here’s how we help you avoid scams:
