Every step below is a place solo operators stall out, get the paperwork rejected, or get cut out by a faster claimant.

Every deal starts with finding money that's actually claimable. Counties publish lists of leftover funds from foreclosure sales, these are your raw leads. Your job here is simple: get the list, narrow it down to fresh, payable surpluses worth your time.
Free, public record, county clerk site or excess proceeds report.
Target sales within the statute window so the surplus is still claimable.
Sale price must exceed total debt + fees for there to be a payable surplus.
Solo? You're hunting county PDFs, learning UPL rules, cold-calling grieving families, and praying your forms aren't rejected. Inside the system: the leads are pulled, the scripts are written, the partner attorney files the claim at $0 upfront, and compliance is handled in all 50 states. Your only job is to make the call and collect the wire.

"Skip this and you waste calls. Nail this and you close."
Skip-trace the owner, call with the proven script. You're delivering news of money they didn't know they had.

Drag the sliders. This is real math, not hype. The lever is volume, the multiplier is your commission percentage.
