FAQ
The final judgment of foreclosure and sale is the legal document that appoints a referee to conduct the auction in a foreclosure action and allows the plaintiff lender to schedule the sale and advertise it with a notice of sale.
How Long Does Foreclosure Take? In Georgia, the foreclosure process can vary depending on your circumstances. However, on average, it takes about one to three weeks to complete. If your property was sold at a foreclosure auction, the eviction process takes about 14 to 30 days.
Once a judgment is issued, the creditor has the right to take further actions to collect the debt, such as wage garnishment, bank account levies, or placing liens on your property.
In Georgia, you can attach judgment liens to both real estate—land, buildings, and other improvements—and personal property like cars, artwork, antiques, electronics, and more.
In a Nutshell This court order allows them to collect on the debt by seizing your real or personal property (or putting a lien on it), garnishing your wages, or levying your bank account. Personal property includes everything from household goods to vehicles. Real property includes things like your home or land.
Creditors cannot take your home in Georgia, but they can place a judgment lien on it.
30 Day Notice of Intent to Foreclose The lender must send a notice of intent to foreclose 30 days before scheduling a foreclosure sale.
The tenant can stay for at least 90 days or for the rest of the lease, whichever is greater. But, if the new owner plans to live in the property, then the tenant only has the right to remain in the property for 90 days. The law applies to all foreclosures on all residential properties.

During the pre-foreclosure period, the lender has warned the borrower that they are in default and at risk of foreclosure, but the house has not yet been repossessed. At this point, the borrower can sell the property to avoid an actual foreclosure, which can negatively impact their credit.
