COURT-HELD MONEY

Tax Sale Proceeds

Unlike foreclosure sales, Virginia tax sales are judicial proceedings. When property is sold through a tax sale, surplus proceeds may remain after taxes, costs, and other obligations have been satisfied.

Determining who is legally entitled to receive those funds frequently requires court proceedings.

Tengco Law represents former property owners, heirs, creditors, and other interested parties seeking recovery of tax sale surplus proceeds held by Virginia courts.

There is no charge for an initial review of a potential claim.

What Must Be Proven?

Claimants may be required to establish ownership, heirship, lien priority, probate authority, or other legal interests. The court often considers documentary evidence before ordering distribution of tax sale proceeds.
