Unclaimed property is defined as a financial asset that is unknown or lost or has been left inactive, unclaimed, or abandoned by its owner, with the most common types being dormant bank accounts, unclaimed insurance proceeds, stocks, dividends, uncashed checks, deposits, credit balances, and refunds.
Patronis says an estimated one in five Floridians has unclaimed property waiting to be claimed and encourages every resident to not delay and “claim it!”
