Start here
Leesburg is Lee County's county seat, and Smithville is a separate city. County planning names the Leesburg and Smithville City Councils, while County Building Inspection describes service in incorporated and unincorporated areas. A mailing address alone does not determine which office handles a parcel-specific question. Start with the property address and the notice or record in front of you.
See the Lee County Comprehensive Plan ↗ and the County's Planning & Zoning page ↗ for jurisdiction-routing context.
Local records and offices
Property valuation, tax payment, recorded documents, and court matters are separate questions. Bring the property address and current notice or record when you call.
Lee County · property valuation and assessment records
Ask the Tax Assessors Office about assessed value, assessment records, and county property-tax records. This is the valuation and assessment route, not the office for paying an unpaid tax bill.

Georgia rule to check
Georgia's real-estate transfer tax is based on the sale price: $1 for the first $1,000 or fraction, then 10 cents for each additional $100 or 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 statutory exemptions may apply. Ask the deed filer to check the sale, the contract, and any exemption before closing.
When you sell to us, we pay the closing costs, including Georgia real-estate transfer tax.
This does not pay the seller's mortgage, liens, back taxes, or share of current property taxes.
