Reuniting Owners with What’s Rightfully Theirs.
When a property sells at foreclosure or sheriff’s sale for more than what was owed, the extra money — called surplus funds — may belong to the former owner or their heirs. East Coast Asset Recovery, LLC helps people find out whether funds exist and guides them through claiming what is theirs.
We are an independent recovery firm — not a law firm, court, or government agency. No recovery is guaranteed.
Integrity first
We explain what we find in plain language, including when there is nothing to claim.
Confidential
Your information stays private. We never sell or share your details with third parties.
Personal service
You work with a real person from first call through the final step of your claim.
Who we are
A steady hand during a difficult chapter
Losing a property is stressful, and the paperwork that follows can be confusing. Many people never learn that money was left over after their sale, and unclaimed surplus funds can eventually be absorbed by the county or state.
Our work is straightforward: we research public sale records, identify potential surplus funds, verify who has the right to claim them, and help prepare a complete, accurate claim package. We answer questions honestly, we put our fee agreement in writing before any work begins, and we never pressure anyone to move forward.
