Frequently Asked Questions
What is a tax sale overage?
A tax sale overage is the extra money left over when a property is sold at a tax auction for more than the amount owed. That surplus may belong to the original owner or heir—but many never claim it.
Who qualifies to claim an overage?
If you or a family member owned property that was sold at a tax auction in NJ or NY, and the sale price exceeded the debt owed, you may be entitled to the surplus funds. We help verify your eligibility.
Do I need to pay anything upfront?
No. We work on a contingency basis—meaning we only succeed when you do. There are no upfront fees, and we cover the cost of research and filing.
How long does the process take?
Most claims are processed within 4–8 weeks, depending on the county’s response time and documentation requirements. We keep you informed every step of the way.
Is this legal and ethical?
Absolutely. We operate with full transparency and compliance with state laws. Our goal is to restore what’s rightfully yours—with integrity and care.
