See If the Surplus Funds Recovery Business Is a Fit for You

When a property sells at a foreclosure or tax auction for more than is owed, the leftover money legally belongs to the former owner, and most never know it exists. Book a free call and we will walk you through the exact process recovery specialists use to find those funds, verify the claim, and earn a fee for reuniting owners with their money, then tell you honestly whether it is worth your time.

What we cover on the call

The full process, explained step by step

No fluff and no hype. On the call we walk through the mechanics of the surplus funds recovery business so you can decide whether it fits you.

01

Where surplus funds come from

Why foreclosure and tax-sale auctions create overages, why the money legally belongs to the former owner, and why counties end up holding it until someone files a claim.

02

The four-step recovery process

How specialists find county records, verify that a claim is real and unclaimed, contact the rightful owner, and file the paperwork with a licensed attorney.

03

How recovery specialists are paid

Specialists typically earn a percentage of the funds they help recover, paid when the claimant is paid. You'll see how that fee structure keeps your incentives aligned with the owner's.

04

Whether this business fits you

The honest picture: the time it takes, the tools you need, and the skills involved. If this business is not a fit for you, we will say so on the call rather than sell you something.

Straight talk

Who this call is for, and who it is not for

Surplus funds recovery is real work with real requirements, and it does not suit everyone. Being clear about that up front saves us both an hour.

Book the call if

  • You want to build a business helping people claim money they are owed, and you are willing to learn a records and paperwork process
  • You can put in consistent hours before the work returns anything
  • You are comfortable contacting people by phone and mail
  • You want to understand what your state requires before you decide anything

Do not book the call if

  • Surplus funds are owed to you personally. This is training for people who want to do recovery work as a business. It is not a service that files your claim. If a county is holding money that belongs to you, contact that county's clerk of court directly. You do not need to pay anyone to do that.
  • You are looking for guaranteed income, a fixed return, or a set timeline. None of those exist in this work.
  • You want something that pays without sustained effort behind it.
Your instructor

Eric Richardson, founder of Money Making Juggernaut

Eric Richardson runs an active surplus funds recovery business from Fort Myers, Florida, and has taught the process to students across the country through Money Making Juggernaut's training programs, YouTube channel, and community. The call is the same explanation of the business he gives anyone who asks how it works: what the process is, what it demands, and who it fits.

Every case shown in the training was processed with a licensed attorney, and the training itself is educational. Nothing in it, or on the call, is legal or financial advice.

Common questions

Before you book

What exactly are surplus funds?
When a property is sold at a foreclosure or tax auction for more than the debt owed, the extra money (the surplus, or overage) legally belongs to the former owner. Many never realize it exists, and it sits with the county until claimed.
Do I need a license or real estate experience?
The training assumes no prior real estate experience. Licensing and registration requirements for recovery work are set at the state level and they differ, and some states regulate this work specifically or cap what a recovery specialist may charge. Working out what your state requires is one of the things the call is for. Nothing here is legal advice.
Is the call really free?
Yes. The call costs nothing and there is no obligation. If the business looks like a fit for you, Eric explains his paid training programs for people who want to go further. If it is not a fit, he will tell you that instead.
How do recovery specialists get paid?
Typically a percentage of the funds they help a claimant recover, paid when the claimant gets paid. Results depend entirely on the claims you find and complete, and no income level is typical or guaranteed.
