As your CFO, I’ve been proud to highlight the great work my team has done to return every cent of unclaimed property back to its rightful owner. Florida currently has unclaimed property accounts with a total value of nearly $2.7 billion just waiting to be claimed. As the holidays approach and you prepare your Christmas lists, I’m encouraging every Floridian to search now for unclaimed property for yourself, your friends, your loved ones, and even your business at FLTreasureHunt.gov. Treat yourself this holiday season and claim your unclaimed property today!” Patronis said.
