Where to find list of pre-foreclosures?

I went to the superior magistrate court clerk today for the list of pendants/notice of defaults, and they had no idea what I was talking about. Made calls to sheriffs dept and community planning and development. No one knows anything about this list. I called my local city court clerk and they did not have it and said I needed to try the county clerk (which is the superior court where I went in person)

I have heard you can go to the “local court of the clerk” and obtain this list that details all properties in pre-foreclosure 

Does anyone know where I can go to get this list? (besides online to pay for it)

Thx!

Hey @Steven Barr, I suspect the various clerks were just being cranky and/or having a laugh at your expense.

Every county in Georgia has a physical "newspaper of record" where foreclosure notices (AKA "Notices of Sale Under Power") are required to be listed.

Fortunately, there's also a FREE website (https://www.georgiapublicnotice.com/) that aggregates data across multiple Georgia counties into a single, searchable database, bless their hearts!

Once on the site main page, select "Foreclosures" under the "Popular Searches" pulldown menu. Then, for example, if you want to see listings for Cobb County, set the "County" field to "Cobb." Then, hit the green "magnifying glass" icon down below and away you go!

Don't say BiggerPockets never helped you out!
