Sell Your House Fast in Georgia for Cash

Selling a House Fast in Georgia: What to Know

Georgia has one of the fastest foreclosure processes in the country, a growing market around Atlanta, and plenty of older homes and rentals that need work. Whether you're behind on payments, handling a parent's estate, or done being a landlord, waiting months for a traditional sale isn't always an option.

Facing Foreclosure in Georgia?

Georgia foreclosures are usually non-judicial under a "power of sale" in the security deed. The lender generally must send the homeowner a notice at least 30 days before the sale and publish a notice of sale in the county's legal newspaper once a week for the four weeks before the auction. Sales are held on the first Tuesday of the month at the county courthouse. Georgia generally doesn't give homeowners a right to redeem after the sale, so the whole process can be over in a couple of months.

If you've received a foreclosure notice, timing is critical. A cash sale that closes before the first-Tuesday auction can pay off your loan and preserve equity.

Selling an Inherited House in Georgia

Georgia estates go through the county Probate Court. With a will, the executor petitions to probate it (in "common form" or "solemn form"); without one, an administrator is appointed. In some cases where there are no debts and heirs agree, families can petition for an order that no administration is necessary. A surviving spouse or minor children may also petition for "year's support," which can affect the house. We work with heirs and their attorneys to close once someone has authority to sign the deed.

How Closings Work in Georgia

Georgia requires a licensed attorney to conduct real estate closings, so your sale will be closed by a real estate attorney who handles title, payoffs and recording. Georgia charges a transfer tax of $1 per $1,000 of value, typically paid by the seller, and property taxes are usually prorated at closing. We choose a reputable closing attorney and handle scheduling.
