Des Moines mortgage foreclosure surplus research

Initial property and sale research for Des Moines metropolitan area and surrounding counties, with state contract, fee, assignment, and outreach controls enforced before engagement.

How local research begins

The research file starts with the property address, the approximate sale date, the foreclosing party, and recorded sale documents. The team then verifies whether the sale completed, identifies the likely holder, and checks whether priority claims or legal flags require attorney review.

Records that may be reviewed

  • Recorded foreclosure notices, deeds, and sale results
  • Trustee, foreclosure counsel, clerk, sheriff, or court records
  • Liens, releases, ownership changes, probate, and bankruptcy flags
  • Current holder confirmation and any existing distribution proceeding
