Georgia closing readiness
Georgia is widely recognized as an attorney-led closing state, meaning a licensed Georgia attorney oversees key closing functions as part of the process.
Georgia also imposes a real estate transfer tax that must be paid before a deed can be recorded. The Georgia Department of Revenue explains the transfer tax rate and recording requirement and references the PT‑61 Real Estate Transfer Tax Declaration process.
For public-record searching and indexing, Georgia’s statewide clerk system provides a real estate index search by county/book/page.
