<prompt> Human: I hope this is the correct sub for this question and apologize if its not. I bought a house at a foreclosure sale and found a 50 US savings bond in the house for the previous owner who lost the house to foreclosure. The savings bond has her name on it. Can I claim it for myself? If so, how would I do that?Edit: The person who lost the house did not have financial problems. She was long gone and living somewhere else when I bought it at the foreclosure sale. People here need to get off their high horses and just give answers or just shut up. Law says I own everything left behind when I buy real estate.  <response>: No, the Savings Bond is the property of the person named on it.
