Foreclosure Surplus by Property
When a Manatee home sells at foreclosure auction for more than the total judgment, the leftover money is surplus funds. Florida law generally presumes it is payable to the former owner of record, not the lender or the county, subject to timely lienholder claims and court approval, and it sits with the Clerk of Courts until someone files to claim it. Below are 7 recent Manatee properties where the auction produced an estimated surplus.

About these figures. Estimated surplus is calculated from the public foreclosure sale price minus the final judgment amount and is rounded for display. The actual amount recoverable by a former owner can be lower after valid junior liens, association claims, court costs, and statutory fees are deducted, and is ultimately determined by the court under Florida Statute 45.032. This list is provided for informational purposes from public records and is not a guarantee that funds remain available for any specific case. Surplus Claim Advocates is not a law firm.
