Georgia has a non-judicial foreclosure process. This allows a mortgage holder to foreclose much more quickly and simply than in many other states. The mortgage holder must run a notice in the official legal organ (newspaper) for the county where the property is located. The notice is run for four (4) consecutive weeks.
Types of Foreclosures in Georgia: Judicial Foreclosure: Involves court proceedings; less common. Non-Judicial Foreclosure: Does not require court intervention; more common; typically faster.
