PROCEDURE

How Cobb County tax sales work

01 · THE LIST

The county publishes its sale list

As the first-Tuesday sale approaches, Cobb County posts the parcels it intends to sell (typically weeks before sale day). BidWise watches the official source daily and ingests the list the day it drops.

02 · RESEARCH

Every parcel gets analyzed

Comparable sales filtered by type, size, and proximity; an objective 0–100 deal score with a BID / NO-BID call; a recommended max bid; back-tax depth and opening bid — on every parcel, before auction day.

03 · AUCTION DAY

Bid on the courthouse steps in Marietta

Georgia tax sales are live, in-person, first-Tuesday auctions. Bidding starts around the taxes owed and you must pay with certified funds the same day — know your walk-away number before you raise a hand.

04 · REDEMPTION

Hold through the redemption window

You receive a redeemable tax deed. For at least 12 months the owner can redeem by paying your bid plus a premium (generally 20% in year one). If nobody redeems, you can pursue barment and then quiet title to convert the deed into marketable ownership.

Georgia tax deed rules involve real legal risk — redemption mechanics, barment, and title clearing have statutory requirements and edge cases. This page is general research, not legal advice: verify details on the county's official notice and consult a Georgia real-estate attorney before bidding.

Cobb County tax sale FAQ

When is the next Cobb County tax sale?

Cobb County sells on the first Tuesday of the month in months where it has parcels to offer. The next list hasn't been published yet — BidWise monitors the county's official source daily and analyzes the list as soon as it drops.

Where does the Cobb County tax sale happen?

Sales are held in person at the county courthouse steps in Marietta, typically between 10 AM and 4 PM on sale day. Confirm the exact venue and time on the county's official sale notice before attending.

What exactly am I buying at a Georgia tax sale?

A redeemable tax deed — not immediate clean ownership. The delinquent owner (or other interest holders) generally has at least 12 months to redeem the property by paying you back with a premium. You typically cannot occupy, rent, or improve the property during that window, and clearing title usually takes a barment process and often a quiet-title action afterward.

What premium do I earn if the owner redeems?

Under Georgia law the redemption amount is generally what you paid at the sale plus a 20% premium in the first year, with an additional 10% for each following year (plus certain allowable costs). Rules and edge cases matter here — verify the current statute and talk to a Georgia real-estate attorney before bidding.

Where is the official Cobb County tax sale list?

The county publishes it on its own site (linked on this page) as sale day approaches. BidWise pulls that same list and runs full analysis on every parcel — deal score, comparable sales, recommended max bid, and back-tax depth — so the research is done before you open the PDF.
