Why Georgia Claims Are More Complex Than They Appear

Georgia has its own set of rules governing how excess funds from tax sales are handled — and they are not straightforward. Eligibility depends on factors like how the sale was conducted, whether proper notice was given, and whether there are competing claims on the funds.

In many Georgia counties, the process requires a formal petition to the Superior Court, supported by documentation that proves your legal right to the funds. Filing errors, missed deadlines, or incomplete paperwork can result in denial — or worse, the funds being forfeited to the state.

That is why most of our Georgia clients choose to work with us. We understand the process, we handle the paperwork, and we do not get paid unless you do.

How We Find Out If DeKalb County Is Holding Your Money

We monitor DeKalb County tax sale records and court filings to identify surplus funds that may be owed to former property owners or their heirs. If a property in DeKalb was sold at auction for more than what was owed, the excess is held by the county — but the county is not going to come looking for you.

When you reach out to us, we cross-reference your information against public records, verify the amount being held, and determine whether you are eligible to file a claim. There is no cost for this step.
