Useful offices

Start with the record or notice you have

Helpful local rules

Georgia transfer tax and the closing paperwork

Georgia charges a real-estate transfer tax based on the sale price: $1 for the first $1,000, or any fraction, and 10 cents for each additional $100, or any fraction. The seller is legally liable, although the sales contract can assign payment to the buyer. The deed generally cannot be recorded until the tax is paid, and some statutory exemptions may apply. Ask the deed filer or closing professional to confirm the amount, any exemption, and the contract allocation for your sale.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Georgia real-estate transfer tax. Your mortgage, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate.

Check the property’s actual jurisdiction

The City and Gordon County are separate local governments. If a property is described as downtown or historic, the City’s Downtown Development page has the Historic Downtown Business District map and guidance. Check the address with the City rather than assuming it is inside a district or city boundary.
