Selling Property in Georgia

The following information is required for For Sale By Owner (FSBO) and property listed by a Realtor. The purpose of this section of my web page is for give you a broad understanding of most of the contracts involved in buying and selling property. On this page you will find copies of the Georgia Offer to Purchase contract for both Residential and Land purchases. They are lengthily but not hard to understand. Georgia is a consumer friendly state with most disputes going to the Buyer. Therefore it is important that you understand the contracts. Their are separate contracts for the purchase on land, residential and commercial properties and copies of each are attached. The contracts are farther divided by types of Financing. For example FHA, Va and Conventional financing require different contracts. You will also see a Property Disclosures, this contract is for the seller to fill out, (Realtors are not allowed to fill out), to the best of their knowledge. If you don't know the correct answer it is best to check "No Representation". If the residence was built before 1978 you must also fill out a Lead Based Paint Addendum. Sellers or their agent must also have copies of the Plat, Covenant and Restrictions, Home Owners Association By Laws, Tax Information and any other information that a Buyer may request. These items are in addition to a good Marketing Plan. In Georgia the Buyer may be represented by a Buyer's Agent and a FSBO may not be represented in the negotiations. If the property is listed by a real estate agent, the listing agent is the sellers representative.
