After right of redemption foreclosed, quiet title petition under OCGA §23-3-60 is recommended for marketable title.
Georgia redeemable tax-deed county. Newton County Tax Commissioner holds tax sales on the first Tuesday of months when a sale is planned, 10:00 a.m.; bidders must appear early to register (no mail/phone/fax bids). Opening bid = tax due + penalties + fees. Payment in full by 3:00 p.m. sale day in cash, cashier’s check, or money order only. Purchaser receives Sheriff’s Tax Deed subject to 12-month right of redemption (20% premium typical first year). After 12 months, foreclose right to redeem via certified mail + 4-week publication, then quiet title recommended. Lists in Covington News legals four weeks prior.
Inherited from Georgia rather than researched for Newton: type, redemption, returns, statute.
