Liens that survive

Redeemable tax deed is effectively a lien until redemption barred. Federal liens can survive. County does not assist with redemption or foreclosure of right to redeem.

Quiet title

After right of redemption foreclosed, quiet title petition under OCGA §23-3-60 is recommended for marketable title.

Verify before you bid

This record was compiled from the published sale list. Parcels are pulled, redeemed, and re-priced up to the moment of sale. Confirm the lot is still in the sale, and confirm the opening bid, directly with the county.

Your assumptions

After-repair value (ARV)

Override the derived estimate with real comps

Rehab budget

You cannot inspect before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition

Known surviving liens

Municipal code enforcement, special assessments, federal tax liens

Target margin — 30%

Required profit as a share of ARV. 30% is a common floor for tax-sale flips.

How that number is built

Provider market estimate of $192,000. This is an as-is valuation, not an after-repair one — enter your own comparable-sales figure if the property needs work.

After-repair value: $192,000
Selling costs on exitassumed 8.0% of ARV — agent commission plus seller-side closing.: −$15,360
Rehabassumed No rehab budget entered — assumed $0. Tax-sale parcels are sold unseen and un-inspected; this is rarely correct.: −$0
Quiet title (required)assumed Midpoint of the typical GA range ($3,000–$7,500, ~6 months).: −$5,250

If the owner redeems

Flat penalty

20%

You'd receive

$22,227

Window

365 days

A 20% flat penalty applies if the owner redeems. It is a penalty, not annual interest — the rate does not change with how early they redeem.

redemption stays open indefinitely until the purchaser forecloses it by statutory notice (barment)

Quoted elsewhere as 20% annualised — true only if they redeem on the last possible day and you immediately redeploy the capital. Treat the flat penalty as the real number.

Before you bid

Rehab is assumed to be $0. You cannot inspect these properties before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition.
Surviving liens assumed $0. The 12-month period is a minimum, not an expiry — the redemption right persists until you serve barment notice, so budget for that process.

AI risk brief
