Claiming surplus funds in Sandoval County
Surplus from sales in Sandoval County is held by the county office that conducted the sale, typically the clerk, auditor, or treasurer. We confirm the holding office before anything is filed.
New Mexico mortgage foreclosure is judicial, with the judgment and court-supervised sale governing proceeds. N.M. Stat. Ann. §§ 39-5-17–19 concern timing and property redemption and set no general post-sale surplus filing period. Request payment through the foreclosure court under its judgment and order. The usual nine-month § 39-5-18 period is for redeeming property, not claiming surplus cash.
