How the ReVesta system works

Most surplus operators lose their week to the same grind: refresh the auction calendar, pull the case, read the docket, chase the liens, guess at the value, hunt for a phone number - and do it all again for the next lead, and the hundred after that.

ReVesta does that work for you and hands you the finished file. Here is exactly what happens between a county auction and the call-ready lead that lands in front of you.

The method is the same in every county. We are live in Florida now and rolling out to more states.

1. We watch the auctions for you, every day

You stop refreshing portals. Every day, ReVesta scans the county's foreclosure and tax auction calendars and court dockets for new sales and results. The discovery work that eats your mornings is already done before you sit down.

2. We pull the property record

For each property we pull the official record from the county - the owner of record, the assessed value, the sales history, and the property details (type, size, year built). That is the backbone every later step gets checked against.

3. We open the court case and read the docket

We open the foreclosure case and index the full docket - the complaint, the final judgment, notices, and every document filed. This is where the real story of the case lives, and it tells us exactly which documents to pull next.

4. We read the official records

We go into the county's official records and pull what is actually recorded against the property - the mortgages, the junior liens, any satisfactions, and the deed itself. This is what separates a real surplus from a mirage: a case can look great until a second mortgage or an unsatisfied lien eats the whole thing.

5. We work the documents

We do not just link you to a PDF dump. We read the documents and pull the numbers out of them - the judgment amount and terms from the final judgment, the liens named in the complaint, the deed, and any estate paperwork. Each one becomes a verified fact in the file, with the source attached so you can check it yourself.

6. We check probate and find the heirs

When the owner has passed - which is a huge share of surplus cases - the money runs through their estate. We find the probate case, confirm the death, and surface the heirs and their relationship to the owner, so you know who can actually claim before you dial.

7. We price it at retail value

We do not lean on the tax-assessed number, which is usually far below reality. We price the property at retail using current estimates from the major real-estate sources and take the median, so the surplus math reflects what the property is really worth.

8. We skip-trace the contact

Locating the former owner is the hardest part of this business, and we do it for you. Every file ships with a verified contact for the person who can claim - so you are not staring at a name, you are picking up the phone.

9. We verify the surplus is real

Before a file ever reaches you, we run the surplus math against the full lien stack and put it through a readiness contract - dozens of checks across the case, the documents, the liens, probate, and the contact. Only cases that clear those checks ship as call-ready. If something is off, it does not reach you.

Then it lands where you work

You get alerted the moment new qualified leads are ready, plus reminders on upcoming auctions - so you are early on the ones that matter, not late.

And you get the leads the way that fits how you work:

• The ReVesta dashboard - browse, filter, and open every file with its verified documents, lien stack, and skip-traced contact in one place.
• CSV export - pull your leads into your own spreadsheet, CRM, or internal tools.
• Our API - feed leads straight into your own dashboard or system, automatically.

Same verified file either way. You spend your time on the call, not on the file.

This describes ReVesta's process, not legal advice. Surplus rules, deadlines, and fee limits vary by state - verify with the county before acting.
