Whatever the reason, families everywhere are letting all of this unclaimed money and property sit where it just gathers dust. To claim any property that may be in your name, you don;t have to travel state to state to check with the treasury department, simply visit Find Unclaimed Money.

 

The Hunt For Unclaimed Property

If you want to know if your unclaimed property is being held without your knowledge, you can find out with a simple online search by Find Unclaimed Money. This nationwide database has been established to help Americans from Texas to Michigan, from North Dakota to Maine search for unclaimed property of all types. If you have a couch that you forgot in a storage unit in Mississippi, you’ll find it instantly when you search Find Unclaimed Money using your first and last name. Or at least you will find the amount of money it was sold for and who is currently holding onto it for you.

In a lot of unclaimed property cases there is a statue of limitations that varies per each state that will decide how long your physical property will be held onto for safe keeping for. This is even more common in inheritances where the deceased person had property randomly throughout the United States that not every one or any one in their family is familiar with. If this is the case and the statue of limitations expires in the state that the property is currently or was recently being held then the property will usually be sold at auction or liquidated if possible. Again, if this is the case then it will be the funds  you will be able to claim and not the actual property the money came from. If the property was being held in a bank vault and is still being paid to be stored then the actual property should be easy to come across as banks are private parties rather then actual homes or land that ultimately belong to the government.
