How Surplus Funds Work in North Dakota

  • When a property is sold at a North Dakota tax or foreclosure sale for more than what was owed, the excess amount is called "surplus funds."
  • Under North Dakota law, those surplus funds legally belong to the former property owner — not the county.
  • Counties hold these funds for a limited time: you have 2 years from sale date to file a claim.
  • North Dakota is an agent-friendly state — a licensed surplus recovery agent can file your claim without requiring an attorney.
  • There is no statutory cap on agent fees in North Dakota; we charge a reasonable contingency fee with no upfront cost.
  • After your claim is verified, North Dakota 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.
