Tippecanoe County, Indiana Surplus Funds Recovery

Did your home in Lafayette or West Lafayette go through foreclosure? If it sold for more than what was owed, you could be owed money—known as surplus funds. These are the leftover proceeds from a sheriff sale after the mortgage, taxes, and liens are paid off.

Example:
A property in Lafayette sells for $182,000 at a Tippecanoe County sheriff auction. The outstanding mortgage was $128,000. The $54,000 difference is surplus—legally owed to the former homeowner or estate heirs.

How National Equity Agency Helps Tippecanoe County Residents

Surplus funds are not claimed automatically, and the Clerk’s Office won’t always notify you. If left unclaimed, these funds could be sent to the State of Indiana as unclaimed property. We work quickly to prevent that from happening.
