Daytona Beach, FL – April 2025
While millions in foreclosure surplus funds go unclaimed in Florida, a surge in scam activity and misinformation has left many homeowners confused or scared to file a claim.
“We’ve had clients throw away court notices or ignore legitimate outreach because they’ve been targeted by fake recovery schemes before,” said surplus claim attorney Renee Castillo.
Florida officials urge homeowners to verify any company offering recovery assistance and to confirm filings through official court channels.
