Useful offices

Chatsworth and Murray County offices: who handles what

Assessed value, unpaid property taxes, deed and lien records, probate questions, and municipal permits go to different offices. Use the address and the notice or record in front of you; an office contact does not confirm a parcel's title, tax balance, estate authority, or permit status.

Murray County Assessor's Office

Murray County · assessed value and parcel information

Ask about assessed value, parcel information, or an assessment appeal. The Assessor is not the office for a deed or title confirmation.

121 N. Fourth Ave., Chatsworth, GA 30705 · 706-517-1400, extension 2.

Murray County Tax Commissioner

Murray County · property-tax accounts and tax-sale information

Use the county Tags/Taxes page to reach the tax-service route for account searches, payments, and tax-sale information. This is separate from assessed-value questions and recorded deed or lien records.

The county lists 101 S. Third Ave., Chatsworth, GA 30705 · 706-695-3423.

Murray County Clerk of Superior Court

Murray County · deed/property, lien, plat, and transfer-tax records

Use the Clerk for deed and property-recording questions, recorded liens, plats, and transfer-tax matters. These records are different from the Assessor’s valuation and the Tax Commissioner’s account information.

121 N. Third Ave., Chatsworth, GA 30705 · 706-695-2932.

Murray County Probate Court

Murray County · estate, will, and probate-court routing

Start here to locate local probate and will records. Use the actual estate file and any court order when asking who may act or sign; the office route does not decide authority for a particular house.

115 W. Fort St., Chatsworth, GA 30705 · 706-695-3812.

City of Chatsworth Building & Zoning and Code Enforcement

City of Chatsworth only · permits, inspections, zoning, and city code

For a property inside Chatsworth city limits, ask the City about building permits, inspection records, certificates of occupancy, zoning verification, and code or property-maintenance notices. The City has its own department; confirm the property’s jurisdiction before relying on a mailing address.

Building inspector: 706-422-3041. Zoning/code contact: 706-422-3011.

Murray County Building Inspection Department

Unincorporated Murray County and the City of Eton

The County handles building permits and inspections for unincorporated Murray County and the City of Eton. The City of Chatsworth has a separate municipal department, so check which government covers the property before calling.

121 N. Fourth Ave., Chatsworth, GA 30705 · 706-517-1400, extension 1231.

Helpful local rules

Georgia transfer tax and Chatsworth code notices

What Georgia transfer tax means at a sale

Georgia charges $1 for the first $1,000 of sale price or fraction, then 10 cents for each additional $100 or fraction. The seller is legally liable, but the sales contract can assign payment to the buyer; the deed generally cannot be recorded until the tax is paid. Some exemptions may apply, so ask the deed filer or closing professional to check the transaction against the statute.

When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs.

Mortgage balances, liens, back taxes, and your share of current property taxes are separate.

City code contacts inside Chatsworth

For a City code notice or question inside Chatsworth city limits, call the zoning/code contact at 706-422-3011 and ask what applies to that address. The County has separate building-inspection contacts for unincorporated Murray County and the City of Eton.
