Platte County surplus funds list
Wyoming · unclaimed money left over from tax deed and foreclosure sales.
Getting the Platte County list
Platte County posts no surplus list. Wyoming tax sales sell a lien certificate, and the tax deed later goes to the certificate holder with no surplus paid to the former owner (W.S. 39-13-108), so there are no tax sale excess proceeds to claim. For a mortgage foreclosure sale, ask the Platte County Sheriff or the foreclosing lender's attorney whether the sale left surplus; unclaimed money goes to the Wyoming State Treasurer's unclaimed property program.
