Did you know that when a property in Walker County sells at a tax sale and brings in more money than what was owed in unpaid taxes, that extra money is called excess funds? These funds belong to the former owner or someone with a legal claim. You can find information listed under “Excess Funds from Prior Tax Sales” through the Tax Commissioner’s website—though there’s no direct download (you’ll need to contact the office for details).walkercountytax.com
How the County Handles These Funds
Walker County keeps a record—including an updated PDF of Tax Sale Overages (2017–2025)—on its website.walkercountytax.com If you discover a property on the list, claims must be made through the county’s attorney, Weissman Attorneys at Law.walkercountytax.com That means extra steps: tracking down the file, reading through a PDF, contacting attorneys—it adds up.
