If you’re wondering if any of that money is yours, we compiled 14 of the best websites to find unclaimed money for free. Take a look and see if a windfall might be headed your way. This site doesn’t have any search functions of its own. Instead, it acts as a clearinghouse for unclaimed property sites administered by individual governments. Click each state, territory, or province where you have lived or owned property to be directed to an official unclaimed property search for that area. To use this site, enter your name and the state where you live or have lived in the past. The site then searches the databases it has access to and tells you if it finds any money. To use this site, you need to know the name of the failed bank and the city where it was located. If you have a check that’s no good due to the bank having failed, you’ll need the check number. Rather than offering an automated search, the site provides a list of accounts and names. If you see your name on the list, you may have some unclaimed money coming your way. TreasuryDirect also offers an online service to check the value of a paper bond. To use this site, you’ll need your name, FHA case number, city, and state. If you haven’t suffered a loss due to the nationalization of property by a foreign government, or a loss due to military operations, this site won’t find any money for you.
