Terms of Service

Last updated July 14, 2026.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Your Surplus Funds website. By using the site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

Informational purpose only

The site provides publicly available information about tax-sale surplus and excess funds, organized for convenience. It is not legal, financial, tax, or professional advice, and using the site does not create an attorney-client or any other professional relationship. Always verify information with the relevant county and consult a qualified professional about your specific situation.

No warranty on accuracy

Records are compiled from public sources and may be incomplete, out of date, or contain errors. Balances change as claims are paid. We make no warranty that any listing is current, complete, or accurate, and the site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind.

You can claim funds yourself

Surplus funds are claimed directly from the county that holds them, and doing so is free. We do not file claims or represent claimants. You are never required to use any third party to claim funds that belong to you.

Third-party and affiliate links

The site may link to third-party recovery professionals, attorneys, or other services. Some of these may be paid or affiliate arrangements, which means we may earn a commission if you engage them, at no additional cost to you. We do not control third parties and are not responsible for their services. A referral is not an endorsement or a guarantee of any outcome.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Your Surplus Funds is not liable for any loss or damage arising from your use of, or reliance on, the site or its content, including any decision made based on a listing.

Intellectual property

The site's design, text, and original compilations are owned by Your Surplus Funds. Underlying public records are the property of their respective government sources. You may view and use listings for personal, lawful purposes.

Acceptable use

Do not use the site to harass individuals named in public records, to scrape or resell our compiled data in bulk without permission, or for any unlawful purpose.

Changes

We may update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated Terms.
