Find Unclaimed Property On the Web
Monday November 21, 2005
Did you know that you can find unclaimed property on the Web? Almost every state in America has their very own unclaimed property sites. Here's a few that I just dug up:
- Unclaimed Property-Every State: NAUPA (National Association of Unclaimed Property Administrators) has a great unclaimed property site; just click on your state.
- Texas Unclaimed Property: "From a long-dormant bank account to a forgotten utility deposit or family heirloom in an abandoned safe deposit box, the state may be holding valuable property that belongs to you. If so, I want to return your property to you."
- California Unclaimed Property: "The State of California is holding more than $4.8 billion in Unclaimed Property."
- Florida Unclaimed Property: " Currently, the Chief Financial Officer holds unclaimed property accounts valued at more than $1 billion."

Phillip J Harker, England, says: I have nearly thirty years experience of tracing missing account holders and missing beneficiaries throughout the world. http://www.harkerandcompany.com
I was therefore interested to read your article. Most people can be found by my family firm on a no win no fee basis.
In these difficult and turbulent financial times, an unexpected windfall would be most welcome for most people, and those financial institutions holding the unclaimed funds would also benefit gaining goodwill and publicity from their former customers.
