Delaware’s #1 Surplus Fund Recovery Service

Recover Your
Surplus Funds
from Delaware Sheriff Sales

If your property was sold at a Delaware Sheriff Sale, you may have thousands of dollars waiting in the court — unclaimed and unknown to you.

Our Process

How It Works

Our proven 4-step process helps Delaware property owners recover surplus funds held by the Superior Court after sheriff sale proceedings.

01

Property Identification

We search Delaware sheriff sale records to identify properties where surplus funds may exist and rightful owners haven’t claimed them.

02

Owner Verification

We verify your ownership rights and eligibility to claim the surplus funds through thorough legal research and documentation review.

03

Legal Documentation

We prepare and file all necessary legal documents with the Delaware Superior Court — handling every step of the paperwork on your behalf.

04

Fund Recovery

We recover your surplus funds and transfer them directly to you. Our fee is only collected after successful recovery — zero upfront cost.
