* Estimated: the list does not show the date of the Clerk's mailed notice, so the date shown is the sale date plus 120 days, the earliest the 120-day window can close. Individual former owners are shown as initials; business names as published. Where the list gives no street address, a row shows the parcel or case number only. Amounts change as claims are paid: confirm with the office that holds the money.
How to claim surplus funds in Walton County
Fla. Stat. 197.582: a claim must be filed with the Clerk within 120 days of the Clerk's mailed notice of surplus. Governmental liens are paid first, then other liens by priority, before the former titleholder. A lienholder who misses the 120 days is barred; the former owner's own claim is not, and money nobody claims is handled as unclaimed property for the titleholder (197.582(5) and (9)).
File a notarized claim (the statute's 'Claim to Receive Surplus Proceeds of a Tax Deed Sale' form) with the Walton County Clerk within 120 days of the Clerk's notice (Fla. Stat. 197.582(3)); the statute allows mail, delivery, or fax or e-mail where the Clerk authorizes it. Statute: Fla. Stat. 197.582.
HeritageDeed is not a surplus recovery company and does not file claims. Claims are filed with the clerk, court or state office named on each county page, whose instructions describe claimants filing for themselves; a lawyer is optional.
Liens are paid before the former owner
Whatever is recorded against the property (an unreleased mortgage, a judgment, a code enforcement or tax lien) can take part or all of the surplus before the former owner is paid.
HeritageDeed does not search title records in Walton County yet, so no report can be ordered here; the liens of record are in the Walton County Clerk's Official Records. Counties HeritageDeed covers.
