What Happened to You
Losing a home is one of the heaviest things a family can carry.
A tax foreclosure doesn't just take a building. It takes the place where your children grew up, where holidays happened, where your life was built. The loss is real, and it is profound.
But here is something most families are never told: when the government sells your property to recover unpaid taxes, anything collected above that tax debt is your equity. It is your money. And in most states, it is sitting in a government account waiting to be claimed.
Why This Cannot Wait
Every state sets a deadline. After that, the funds are gone — permanently.
Overage funds from a tax sale foreclosure are not held indefinitely. State statutes impose strict claim windows — often one to three years from the date of sale. Once that period closes, unclaimed funds are absorbed by the government, and former owners lose their right to recover them entirely.
If your foreclosure happened in the last few years, your window may still be open. But it is closing. This is not a sales pitch — it is a notice that the clock is running.
The average overage recovery is in the thousands of dollars — sometimes tens of thousands. Enough for a security deposit, first and last month's rent, or a down payment on your next home.
How This Works
You've already been through enough. Let me carry this part.
I handle the entire claims process on your behalf — researching your specific case, preparing and submitting the required documentation to the appropriate state agency, and following up until the funds are released.
You pay nothing upfront. My fee is a contingency — 35% of whatever is recovered, only upon successful recovery. If nothing comes back, you owe nothing.
You Sign the Authorization
A simple agreement that gives me permission to contact state agencies on your behalf.
I Do the Work
Research, documentation, filing, and follow-up — all handled professionally and thoroughly.
Funds Are Released
The government issues a check. You receive 65% of the recovered amount, mailed directly.
Complimentary Service
We come to you. Notary included — at no cost.
Most states legally require that the authorization agreement — and often the accompanying claim forms — be notarized by a licensed Notary Public before a government agency will accept and process them. This is not a formality; it is a legal requirement that confirms your identity and the voluntary nature of your authorization.
We understand that you have already been through enough. The last thing you should have to do is search for a notary, drive somewhere, and navigate more paperwork alone. That is why notary coordination is included as a complimentary service with every case — at no additional charge to you.
Licensed Notary Arranged
We coordinate a licensed Notary Public for your documents. You do not need to find, schedule, or pay for one separately.
Pickup & Delivery
Documents are picked up from you and returned after notarization — at a time and location that works for your schedule.
No Extra Cost
This service is fully complimentary. There is no fee for notary coordination or document delivery. It is simply part of how we work.

The authorization agreement is available below as a print-ready PDF. Fill in the blank fields by hand, sign it, and we will handle the notarization and delivery from there. If you prefer, we can bring the documents to you directly.

Why Brandon L. Faulkner
In a moment of crisis, you deserve someone who will do this right.
I understand the bureaucratic process of recovering these funds — the specific forms each state requires, the agencies that hold them, and the documentation needed to make a successful claim. This is not something most people know how to navigate alone, and that is exactly why these funds go unclaimed.
No Recovery, No Fee
This is a contingency arrangement. You take on zero financial risk. I only earn when you do.
Full Process Handled
From research to filing to follow-up, I manage every step so you don't have to learn a system that wasn't designed for you.
Your Equity, Returned
These are not government grants or charity. This is your money — equity from the home you built — being returned to you.
There is still a path forward.
The funds owed to you could be the down payment on your next chapter — a security deposit, a fresh start, options you didn't know you still had.
Reach out. Let me look into your case. This conversation costs you nothing, and it may be the most important one you have this year.
