Costs & closing

Georgia closing costs, explained

What Georgia charges

When your Georgia home sells, the state charges a real-estate transfer tax: $1 on the first $1,000 of the sale price, then 10¢ for every additional $100. The seller — not the buyer — is responsible for paying it. Rate source: Georgia Department of Revenue — real estate transfer tax, as of 2026-08-27. Source · O.C.G.A. 48-6-1

What HomeRise charges

None of that tax goes to HomeRise. HomeRise is not a licensed brokerage. With Essentials or Advanced, HomeRise charges two flat fees: the plan price when you activate your listing, then a closing compliance fee — $495 or $995, depending on your plan — charged only if your home sells. That closing fee covers MLS compliance, document review, and closing coordination. Prefer a licensed agent? Full Service matches you with one — no upfront fee, and the agent is paid 1% or 1.75% at closing.

Who handles your closing

In Georgia, a closing attorney runs your closing, not HomeRise. The attorney handles the final paperwork and collects the transfer tax with your other closing costs, itemized on one closing statement. HomeRise's part comes earlier — a compliance call before your listing goes live, so it meets Georgia MLS rules. That call doesn't replace your closing attorney, and it doesn't collect any tax.

What you do next

Pick a plan above and start your listing. After the compliance call, your home goes live on the Georgia MLS, and you manage showings and offers from your HomeRise dashboard. Accept an offer, and the closing attorney takes it from there — your exact numbers, transfer tax included, land on the closing statement. We don't show a tax calculator here until a title partner signs off on the math.

Georgia seller rules

What Should Georgia Sellers Know

Post-NAR Settlement Impact on Georgia

The 2024 NAR settlement changed how buyer agent commissions work in Georgia. Commissions are no longer pre-set on the MLS, giving sellers full discretion. Whether to offer a buyer-agent commission, and how much, is your decision. HomeRise advisors can help you think through the strategy for your area and timeline.

Georgia Seller Disclosure Requirements

Georgia sellers must follow Georgia disclosure and closing rules. HomeRise is not a licensed brokerage. The compliance call reviews your listing so it meets Georgia MLS rules. That call does not replace required disclosures, title work, or legal advice. Specific form names are omitted here until a statute is fetched.
