Asset Recovery Advocates earn money through a contingency fee, which means you only get paid after you successfully help someone recover their surplus funds.

When a homeowner receives their money from the county, the advocate earns a small percentage for doing the work — things like finding the surplus, preparing the paperwork, guiding the client, and helping the claim get approved.

There are no upfront costs for the client, and you don’t get paid until they get paid.

So the better you serve your clients and help them recover their money,
the more you earn — it’s a win-win for everyone.

Real estate agents, brokers, and investors already understand property transactions — which gives them a big advantage! By partnering with Holmes Asset Recovery, you can earn additional income helping former homeowners claim surplus funds after tax lien or foreclosure sales. It’s a powerful way to serve your community and add a new stream of revenue without selling a property.

Notaries are essential in the surplus funds process because claim documents often require notarization. As a notary partner, you can expand your services by helping clients sign and submit official claims, or even become a business partner yourself — using your notary experience to help people recover their funds while earning commissions.
