How tax sales work in Georgia

What you buy Property under a tax execution is sold in the manner of a judicial sale; the purchaser takes a tax deed whose recitals show the amount paid, subject to the owner's statutory right of redemption, and redemption money is paid to the purchaser. O.C.G.A. § 48-4-1(a)(1); §§ 48-4-40, 48-4-42(d), read August 30, 2026 at the official text
How long the owner has to redeem The defendant in fi. fa. or any interest-holder may redeem at any time within 12 months from the date of the sale, and at any time after that until the right to redeem is foreclosed by the barment notice under § 48-4-45. O.C.G.A. § 48-4-40 (as amended by Ga. L. 2016, Act 600 / HB 51), read August 30, 2026 at the official text
What the owner pays to redeem The redemption amount is the price paid at the tax sale, plus taxes the purchaser paid afterward and any special assessments, plus a premium of 20% of that amount for the first year or fraction of a year after the sale and 10% for each year or fraction of a year thereafter — the structure in force since July 1, 2016. O.C.G.A. § 48-4-42(a) (as amended by Ga. L. 2016, Act 600 / HB 51, effective July 1, 2016), read August 30, 2026 at the official text
When the sale is held Execution sales take place on the first Tuesday of each month between 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. at the county courthouse, shifting to the following Wednesday when the first Tuesday falls on New Year's Day or Independence Day. No statute authorizes online tax sales — the 2022 bill proposing them was never enacted. O.C.G.A. § 9-13-161(a), read August 30, 2026 at the official text

Each row above is the statute itself, not our summary of it. The full Georgia statutory fact table carries every field, the operative text word for word, what each cited document is, and the fields we could not verify. Note that a statutory sale day is a fact about the law, not a scheduled sale — dates a county has actually published are on the calendar only.
