Florida Tax Deed Surplus Funds by County (Full Guide)

Florida’s 67 Counties — Tax Deed Surplus Guides (2026)

The Complete Homeowner Resource for All 67 Florida Counties

When a property in Florida is sold at a tax deed sale for more than the taxes and fees owed, the extra money—called surplus funds—belongs to the former homeowner or eligible claimant under Florida Statute §197.582.

But every county handles surplus funds differently.

Different:

  • forms

  • claim procedures

  • review times

  • probate requirements

  • surplus distribution rules

  • Clerk of Court workflows

Whether you’re a former homeowner, heir, probate estate, or lienholder, Visionary Surplus Recovery helps you claim the funds you’re legally entitled to—with no upfront fees.

Claims initially filed without professional representation that later require correction, amendment, or litigation may be subject to modified recovery terms, including a higher recovery fee, due to the additional work required.
