Helping You Obtain Excess Funds from GA Foreclosure

Consider this: the bank sells your foreclosed home for $100,000, but your mortgage debt and associated fees only total $95,000. The remaining $5,000 becomes surplus funds you, the original owner, could be entitled to reclaim.

  • Who qualifies? Generally, if you were the record owner at the time of the foreclosure sale, you might be eligible. However, other parties with recorded lien interests may also have claims. In general, excess funds go toward lienholders, costs associated with the sale, interest and principal of the secured indebtedness, and then to borrowers.

  • How does it work? The process involves filing a claim with the court, usually with the help of a lawyer. They'll research the case, calculate your potential share, and ensure proper legal procedures are followed.

  • Is it guaranteed? Unfortunately, not every foreclosure generates surplus funds. Additionally, other parties with claims can complicate the process. Consulting a lawyer familiar with Georgia foreclosure laws is crucial to assessing your case and navigating the legal intricacies.

  • Why bother? Even a small sum can be a significant help after such a difficult experience. It can offer a financial cushion for rebuilding your credit, starting fresh, or simply moving forward.
