Notes

Georgia redeemable-deed county. Gordon County (Calhoun / NW Georgia carpet-corridor edge) tax levy sales are run by the Tax Commissioner as ex-officio sheriff when inventory exists. County tax-sales page stated 'No tax sales at this time' as of mid-2026 — always re-check gordoncountytax.com/tax-sales/ before planning a bid. When held, Georgia statutory pattern is first Tuesday of the month on the courthouse steps. 1-year post-sale redemption; barment/notice under O.C.G.A. Title 48 needed to firm title. Do not confuse with Gordon County, MN or Gordon County, TX.

Deposit rules

Typical GA courthouse-steps practice: cash or certified funds the day of sale for the full bid (taxes, penalties, interest, costs as advertised). Confirm exact payment rules with the Tax Commissioner (706-629-9242 / propertytax@gordoncountyga.gov) before attending any posted sale.

Title risk

Liens that survive the sale

Tax deed is subject to the 1-year Georgia redemption right. After redemption expires and proper barment/notice, most private liens are cut off, but federal tax liens and some assessments can survive. HOA/condo liens require careful review under Georgia law.

Quiet title

Notice/barment under O.C.G.A. Title 48 is the statutory path to strengthen title; many title companies still want quiet title or completed barment before insuring for resale.
