FAQ
Sellers do not usually need to be present at a Georgia closing. Typically, the buyers will sign the final documents at the office of their title company or escrow agent or virtually, and also pick up the keys.
In the State of Georgia a Real Estate Closing (which is the entire process by which title to the property is transferred) must be conducted by a licensed Georgia attorney.
A judicial foreclosure begins when the lender files a lawsuit asking a court for an order allowing a foreclosure sale. If you don't respond with a written answer, the lender will automatically win the case. But if you choose to defend the foreclosure lawsuit, the court will review the evidence and determine the winner.
Scotty: Not as a personal representative, but in Georgia, an attorney is required to complete all aspects of the closing. So, ultimately an attorney will have to be involved as part of the closing process.
Pre-foreclosure is a legal process that occurs before the lender repossesses a property. If a homeowner is late on a certain number of payments, the lender may issue a notice of default, sending the home into pre-foreclosure. Mortgage borrowers may still have some options during pre-foreclosure to save their homes.
The redemption must take place within 12 months of the date of the sale or at any time after the sale until the right to redeem is foreclosed.
How to Figure Tax: The assessed value (40 percent of the fair market value) of a house that is worth $100,000 is $40,000. In a county where the millage rate is 25 mills the property tax on that house would be $1,000; $25 for every $1,000 of assessed value or $25 multiplied by 40 is $1,000.
In Georgia, a licensed Georgia attorney must close all real estate transactions, unlike in many states in which title companies handle escrow and closing matters.
An Attorney is Required Anyone selling, conveying, obtaining a reverse mortgage, or refinancing real estate in Georgia needs an attorney to conduct the closing.
