For property that is valued at $100 or more, Maryland requires holders to send due diligence notices. Due diligence notices must be sent each reporting cycle by first class mail at least 30 days, and not more than 120 days prior to filing a report.

The Comptroller's Office tries to locate the rightful owners of stocks, bonds, savings accounts, security deposits, contents of safe deposit boxes, insurance proceeds and other valuables which are reported to us as unclaimed by banks and other financial institutions after three years. Real property is not included.

Also, remember our dormancy period for the majority of unclaimed property is now three years, not five, so this may affect your need for early remittance.

Notices must be mailed to all owners with amounts of $100 or more. What happens to the property if it remains unclaimed? Maryland law is custodial, which means that the property may be claimed anytime during the individual's lifetime, or by legitimate heirs after the original owner's death.
