Looking for money owed, not property?
When a tax-sale property sells for more than the taxes owed, the excess belongs to the former owner until the county’s claim deadline passes. We do not hold surplus records for Ward County yet. We do publish verified surplus-funds lists for other states, each record traced to the official county report it came from, and a free search to see what is listed.
Surplus funds belong to the former owner. Claims are filed directly with the county, and the county does not charge you to claim your own money. This is access to collected public records, not a recovery service and not a claim.
