Foreclosures & Surplus Funds Dedicated to Success

Michigan Surplus Funds Lawyers

Call (248) 809-1402 for a FREE Consultation

When a home or property in Michigan is foreclosed due to unpaid taxes and sold at an auction, sometimes there are funds that may be owed to you – known as surplus funds – after the government pays for the taxes, fees, and other expenses. However, until recently the government typically kept these surplus funds. Based on a new Michigan Supreme Court case, you may have a right to the surplus funds.

Get Paid What the Treasurer Owes You

If the Treasurer sold your house, land or building at auction to pay back taxes, you may be owed money. Attorney Little can help you get paid what the Treasurer may already owe you. We don't charge a fee until the treasurer pays you.

If you owe back taxes on your property, the County Treasurer becomes the tax collector. Attorney John Little helps property owners negotiate payment plans to avoid foreclosure altogether. If the Treasurer does file what is called a “Foreclosure Petition” that includes your property, Attorney John Little will go to court to argue reasons why you should not lose your property to foreclosure. If the Treasurer has already foreclosed and sold your property at auction, Attorney Little will fight for the Treasurer to pay “surplus funds” that really belongs to you. “Surplus funds” are the difference between the property taxes, interest, penalties and fees owed and the price the property sells for at the Treasurer’s auction. That money is really yours. We help you fight to get it back.
