Valuations
How is a REDA valuation different from a Zillow estimate?
Automated estimates apply one formula to millions of homes and never see yours. We analyze your specific property against hand-selected comparable sales, adjust for condition and features, and show you exactly how we got to the number.
Is a REDA valuation the same as a licensed appraisal?
No. We provide data-driven valuation analyses and opinions of value. A certified appraisal from a licensed appraiser is required in some contexts (like mortgage lending). For pricing decisions, negotiations, tax appeal preparation, and investment analysis, our reports give you the evidence you need.
How long does a valuation take?
Most standard home value assessments are delivered within a few business days of receiving the property details.
What does a valuation cost?
It depends on the scope — a single-family home assessment is priced differently from a multi-property investor analysis. Contact us for a quote; we'll confirm the price before any work begins.
Surplus Funds Recovery
What exactly are surplus funds?
When a foreclosed or tax-sale property sells at auction for more than the debt owed, the excess money is a "surplus" that generally belongs to the former owner or their heirs — not the bank or the county. It's held by a court or agency until claimed.
How do I know if I'm owed money?
If you (or a relative) lost a property to foreclosure or a tax sale, contact us with the property address. We'll research the sale records for free and tell you whether a surplus exists.
What do you charge?
Nothing upfront. We work on contingency — a percentage of the funds actually recovered, agreed in writing before we start. No recovery, no fee.
Why can't I just claim the money myself?
You can — and we'll never tell you otherwise. Many people successfully hire us because the process involves strict deadlines, court paperwork, competing claims from lienholders, and sometimes probate issues. We handle those complications every day.
Is there a time limit to claim?
Yes, and it varies by state. After the statutory window closes, unclaimed funds may be forfeited. If you think you may be owed money, it's worth checking now.
Working with REDA
What areas do you serve?
We serve clients nationwide; surplus funds procedures vary by state and we'll confirm what's possible in yours during the free review. Contact us and we'll let you know how we can help where you are.
Are you a law firm?
No. RE Data Analytics LLC is an analytics and recovery-assistance firm, not a law firm, and we don't provide legal advice. Where state law requires attorney involvement in a claim, we coordinate with licensed attorneys.
