Total Unclaimed Surplus Refunds

Mortgage foreclosure surplus

N.C. Gen. Stat. § 45-21.31 governs power-of-sale proceeds, paid to known entitled people or deposited with the superior court clerk if disputed or the recipient cannot be located; § 45-21.32 governs disputed claims. Sections 45-21.31–32 set no general fixed owner cutoff. Apply promptly to the trustee or clerk. The ten-day upset-bid period concerns sale finality, not claiming money.

Tax sale surplus

N.C. Gen. Stat. § 105-374(q) governs judicial tax-lien surplus, paid as the court directs or deposited in court; § 105-375 provides an alternative in rem route. Section 105-374(q) sets no fixed initial cash-surplus cutoff. If claims conflict, the clerk holds funds pending a special proceeding under § 1-339.71. Redemption before confirmation and upset bids concern land, not an already-created surplus.

Unclaimed funds

N.C. Gen. Stat. ch. 116B, art. 4 governs unclaimed property, with State Treasurer claims under § 116B-67. Section 116B-67 sets no fixed general initial owner-claim cutoff. The 90-day decision period follows filing, and the 30-day payment period follows allowance.
