Submit the property details

We need the foreclosed address, county, your contact details, and your relationship to the prior owner.

We review available records

We look for signs that the sale generated surplus funds and identify whether funds appear court-held surplus funds in Illinois (still in the court case) or state-held (already with the Treasurer).

You choose the next step

If there may be a claim, we explain the process, fees, and your right to pursue the funds yourself.
