Buyer’s guide
Buying land in Georgia
Georgia offers land from the North Georgia mountains to the coastal plain, with metro Atlanta’s growth reaching further into surrounding counties every year. Four real seasons and a lower cost of living keep demand for homesites strong.
What to know before you buy
- Zoning. Most Georgia counties have zoning. Check what’s allowed, especially for manufactured homes and minimum home sizes.
- Septic. The county environmental health office approves septic systems after a soil evaluation.
- Taxes. Qualifying agricultural or timber land can enroll in conservation use valuation, which lowers property taxes in exchange for a 10-year commitment.
