Each state is required to keep those funds and a list of who they are owed to at one of their offices, most are: Comptroller of Public Accounts, Secretary of State, or the Treasurers office (etc.). A search for unclaimed property and your state name (since it is not in the question) should produce the results you are looking for.

NOTE: there are services that charge money for these claims, do not use them, the states provide all this to you without a fee and these services are normally a rip-off.

Will the excess amount in foreclosing real estate mortgage given to th mortgage or not?

I'm not sure this question was complete, but the answer is that any excess equity after a property is foreclosed will go to the prior homeowner. In other words, if a home is foreclosed and the home sells at auction for more than was owed to the bank, the excess will go to the homeowner who was foreclosed upon. Keep in mind many fees and charges may be attached to a foreclosure, so the equity may be limited.

What is the difference between a foreclosed property and a bank-owned property?

The two terms are used loosely by many people so they can have an overlap in their meaning. Foreclosure is a process. When someone says a property has been foreclosed upon they are mostly talking in the past tense. A foreclosure that runs its full course will end with an auction. If the foreclosure stops prior it is normally because the default has been settled through some other means. Normally a default that has been cured is from the loan being settled (in full or for an agreed short sale amount). When a foreclosure happens the final step is an auction where the lender enters the opening bid. If there is another bidder that offers more they win the auction and become the owner. In that case the property was foreclosed upon and the owner is the party that won the auction. For most practical purposes there is nothing special in that the property has a new owner and there is nothing odd to be concerned about. When the auction fails to identify a bidder who will pay more than the lender's opening bid the lender becomes the owner. Assuming a bank and not a private lender, the property is classified as Other Real Estate Owned (OREO). Most people shorten the term to REO. Regulated banks in the US are required by law to dispose of property that is OREO. It is surplus to requirements and banks cannot hold RE for investment purposes.

What kind of cleaning needs to be done to a foreclosed home before auction?

Essentially no cleaning is required unless there is some sort of agreement between the lender and the homeowner which the homeowner has agreed to. Beyond that the only requiement is to clear out belongings before the home is auction. The type of cleaning needed to auction foreclosed homes depends on the amount one expects to get at auction. A home can be auctioned “as-is”, but will not get a good price. Unfortunately, in this market simply cleaning a home will not guarantee a better price at auction.

Are there more homes for rent because of the increased amount of foreclosures in 2009?

Actually there are likely fewer. Once a home is foreclosed it returns to the control of the lender, usually a bank. Banks are not in the rental business and the house usually sits empty until sold at auction.

How do you find out in the state of Utah if your foreclosed manufactured house has been sold?

In most states, the foreclosure needs to be conducted at a properly noticed public auction and you should receive notice of the sale. If the proceeds exceed the amount owed and any other liens, you should be able to contact the lienholder or the foreclosure trustee for an accounting.


Are there any options for you if your foreclosed home already has an auction date?

Unless it is possible to pay the monies owed to bring the entire delinquency amount current to stop the foreclosure sale, there are two other options. One option is to file bankruptcy, and the other is to allow the sale to proceed. Most states have a right of redemption period following an auction, but it requires the delinquency be paid up within a short period of time in order to reclaim the property.
