Real Estate Recording Fees

 
 GLYNN COUNTY REAL ESTATE RECORDING FEES

AS OF JANUARY 1, 2020

Effective January 1, 2020, filing fees for real estate deed documents, UCCs, certain types of liens, and plats are changing.  House Bill 288, which modifies O.C.G.A § 15-6-77, was passed by the Georgia General Assembly during the 2019 legislative session and institutes a "flat" or "predictable" filing fee structure.

The Authority has modified the calculations for estimated filing fees on our eFile portal, https://efile.gsccca.org
