Facing Foreclosure? You Have More Options Than You Think

Falling behind on a mortgage can happen to anyone — a job loss, a medical bill, a divorce. If you own a home in Northeast Georgia and foreclosure is on the horizon, the most important thing you can do is act early. This page lays out how the process works in Georgia and the options in front of you — including selling to us, if that's the right fit.

How Foreclosure Works in Georgia

Georgia is a non-judicial foreclosure state, which means a lender doesn't need to go to court to foreclose. Once the process starts, it can move quickly — foreclosure sales in Georgia are held on the first Tuesday of the month, and a sale can be scheduled within a matter of weeks after formal notice. That speed is exactly why waiting is the most expensive choice. The earlier you act, the more options you keep.

Your Options — Honestly

Selling isn't always the answer. If you want to keep the home, start with your lender — ask about reinstatement, a repayment plan, or a loan modification — and consider talking to a HUD-approved housing counselor, which is free. If you'd rather sell, doing it before the sale date lets you walk away with your equity instead of losing the house at auction. That's where we come in: a fast, as-is cash sale with no fees, no repairs, and a closing scheduled around your deadline.

A Sale to Us Might Fit If

• You have equity in the home and want to protect it
• You've decided you don't want to keep the property
• The sale date is approaching and a traditional listing would take too long
• The house needs repairs a retail buyer would demand
• You want a certain, scheduled closing instead of an auction

Common Questions

Will you lowball me because I'm in a tough spot?

No. Our offer is based on the property's condition and the numbers — not your situation. If our number doesn't beat your other options, we'll tell you that straight.

How close to the sale date is too close?

It depends on title and payoff timing. Reach out and we'll tell you honestly whether there's enough runway — and if there isn't, we'll say so.

What happens to what I owe on the house?

The mortgage and any liens get paid off at closing out of the sale proceeds. Whatever remains after payoff is yours.

Does talking to you cost anything or commit me to anything?

No. No fees, no obligation. Worst case, you spend a few minutes and know exactly where you stand.

What if I want to keep my house?

Then selling to us isn't the right move — contact your lender or a HUD-approved housing counselor about reinstatement or modification options first.
