Florida Residents May Be Entitled to Surplus Funds After Foreclosure, Says The Foreclosure Focus

West Palm Beach, Florida May 26, 2025 (EMWNews.com) – Thousands of Florida families may be owed money after foreclosure, and The Foreclosure Focus is helping them find out. A growing number of homes are selling at auction for more than the mortgage balance, creating what’s called surplus funds — the leftover equity that should be returned to the previous homeowner or their heirs.

Unfortunately, many people don’t know these funds exist or how to claim them.

The Foreclosure Focus, a West Palm Beach-based advocacy platform, offers public resources to help homeowners:

• Search court records for surplus funds

• Learn who is eligible to file a claim

• Understand probate and inheritance rules

• Submit timely filings before funds are lost to the state

“Most people walk away from foreclosure thinking they’ve lost everything,” said a spokesperson for The Foreclosure Focus. “But the truth is, there may still be equity waiting for them — and we make sure they don’t miss it.”

The Foreclosure Focus has expanded its presence across over 50 business directories, including Google, Apple Maps, Superpages, YP, and more, to ensure residents across Florida can find reliable help quickly.
