State Guide

How Surplus Funds Work in Nevada

  • When a property is sold at a Nevada tax or foreclosure sale for more than what was owed, the excess amount is called "surplus funds."
  • Under Nevada law, those surplus funds legally belong to the former property owner — not the county.
  • Counties hold these funds for a limited time: you have 1 year from sale date to file a claim.
  • Nevada is an agent-friendly state — a licensed surplus recovery agent can file your claim without requiring an attorney.
  • Nevada law caps the agent fee at 10% of recovered funds — protecting you by law.
  • After your claim is verified, Nevada counties typically process disbursements within several months.
  • We handle all paperwork, follow-up, and county communications at no upfront cost — you only pay if we recover funds.
