The sale price is not the amount you keep. Net proceeds are what remains after sale costs and amounts due, so compare the written numbers and the costs that fit your house instead of relying on the headline price alone.

We have two ways to buy. A Cash Offer is built for speed, condition, and tough situations — heavy repairs, tight timelines, difficult circumstances. EZ Sale is often the better fit when the house doesn't need major repairs and you want a higher number. Either way, you compare written numbers and you pick what works best for you.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Georgia real-estate transfer tax. Your mortgage payoff, liens, back taxes, and share of current property taxes are separate. Georgia real-estate transfer tax is based on the sale price; some exemptions may apply, and the title company can confirm what applies to the deed and sale.

Yes. A Georgia executor may sell estate real property before probate closes when the will grants a power of sale or the probate court grants authority under O.C.G.A. §53-8-13. Without authority in the will, the personal representative must ask the probate court for leave to sell; being an heir or named executor alone is not enough to sign. The will, appointment, court order, and title record determine who may convey. If you need an estate attorney, we can help you find one.

For a Georgia power-of-sale foreclosure, the sale is held on the first Tuesday of the month at the county courthouse. Notice must be published once each week for four weeks, and the lender must send the borrower notice at least 30 days before sale. A completed, valid power-of-sale foreclosure has no post-sale redemption period. Check the current lender notice and sale date; signing an agreement alone does not change the scheduled deadline.

Yes. An ordinary sale does not itself end a lease; Georgia’s Department of Community Affairs says a new owner is generally subject to an apartment’s existing lease terms. The former owner must transfer the security deposit to the new owner, who becomes responsible for it, or refund it to the tenant. Share the lease and deposit records with the buyer; the handbook describes different consequences after foreclosure.

A house can be discussed while you sort out a notice, but a sale by itself does not show that an order, lien, repair deadline, or occupancy restriction has been cleared. For an address inside Chatsworth, the City handles its own code and building records; Murray County and the City have separate service areas. Check the address and current notice with the office responsible for that property.
