Selling a house with code violations in Conyers, Georgia
We buy houses in the condition they are actually in. Nothing to fix first.
What this actually means
An open violation is a recorded obligation attached to the property. It usually has to be resolved or explicitly accounted for before a conventional sale can complete, and unresolved violations can accumulate penalties over time.
What usually goes wrong
Owners often do not know how many violations exist until they try to sell. Penalties may have been accruing quietly for a long time.
Your options
Resolve the violations and sell conventionally. Sell as it is to a buyer who will resolve them. Negotiate with the authority about the timetable. Keep it and address them gradually.
What applies in Conyers, Georgia
Georgia treats the property-maintenance code as permissive rather than mandatory: it only applies where the local government has actually adopted it by ordinance or resolution, which is why property-condition enforcement differs from one Georgia jurisdiction to the next. (Source: https://dca.georgia.gov/community-assistance/construction-codes/mandatory-and-permissive-state-codes) Rockdale County code enforcement begins with a Notice of Violation that sets a deadline to correct the problem — typically 7 to 10 days, though the time given varies with the violation, the circumstances and the officer's discretion — and the property is re-inspected on that date. (Source: https://www.rockdalecountyga.gov/i-received-a-notice-what-do-i-do/) If a Rockdale County violation is not corrected by the re-inspection date, the code enforcement officer may issue a citation through the Magistrate Court; fines can be charged for each day the violation continues, with each day counting as a new violation, and the county may place a lien on the property where there have been repeated violations or abatement by the county.

Common questions
Do I need to fix them first? Not to sell to us. What if I do not know what is outstanding? That is normal and can be established. Are the penalties my responsibility? Up to closing, generally yes.
What we do
We buy properties with open violations and take on resolving them after purchase. We cannot have violations dismissed, and we will not misrepresent their existence to anyone.
How selling to us works
You tell us about the property. There is no cost and no obligation. We look at it — in person where that is useful, and we do not ask you to prepare it first. We make an offer, and we explain how we arrived at it rather than simply naming a number. If the offer works for you, you choose the closing date. If it does not, that is a perfectly good answer and we leave it there.
