In Chatham County, 42% of the housing went up before 1980 and 43% of households are renters. About 12% of homes stand empty. Older houses often need work a listing would expect you to fix first; we buy them as-is, with no repairs or cleaning. With so many rentals, investors often sell to us with tenants in place, and we pay the closing costs.

Whether the house is inherited, facing foreclosure, behind on property taxes or simply no longer fits, selling in Chatham County starts with the address. The deed, any liens and the county's tax records are cleared through the title company at closing; the deed is recorded with Chatham County Clerk of Superior Court, and property values and taxes are kept by Chatham County Board of Assessors.

Selling in Chatham County, GA: what is local

What's different about selling a house in Chatham County, GA

Chatham County adds two things to a sale that most Georgia counties do not: an annual fire service fee in unincorporated areas, settled at closing, and a base-year homestead exemption.

Who values, who bills, who records in Chatham County

In Chatham County, the Board of Assessors establishes fair market value for ad valorem taxation. The Tax Commissioner bills and collects current and delinquent property taxes. The Clerk of Superior Court, Real Estate Recording Division records real estate documents for the county.

A fire fee at closing in unincorporated Chatham

Properties in unincorporated Chatham carry an annual fire service fee. The county says the closing attorney should collect it during closing and may prorate it between buyer and seller, so it belongs on the list of items to settle in the written terms.

A base-year homestead exemption

Chatham offers a local homestead exemption that works from an adjusted base-year value, beyond the standard state exemption. It follows the owner, not the house, which is one more reason the next owner's taxes will not match yours.
