St. Petersburg, FL – April 2025
New statewide auction data reveals that foreclosure sales in Florida are now closing at an average of 112% of the final judgment amount — creating significant surplus fund potential in most cases.
“This isn’t 2008. Homes are selling for more than the debt, and that excess belongs to the owner,” said a surplus researcher.
Officials urge homeowners to file before creditors or third parties claim the excess.
