If a Michigan county sold your property at a 2013-2020 tax foreclosure auction for more than you owed, you may be eligible for about 125% of the surplus minus fees. You'll need your Unique ID from the notice and proof of ownership. File your claim by November 23, 2026.

What FreebieAgent noticed
This is a legitimate class action settlement, not a freebie, for former property owners in 28 Michigan counties. The settlement was preliminarily approved in August 2025, with final approval hearing scheduled for January 2027, so no payouts happen until the court signs off. You need proof: a Unique ID (from the notice mailed to you) and documents showing you owned the property when it was foreclosed. The catch is real: proof of ownership is required, and you must file the claim yourself before the November 2026 deadline. This isn't guaranteed money, but if you qualify, it's worth the 10 minutes to file.
