How a Baker County tax sale works

When and where. First Tuesday of the month, 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at the Baker County Courthouse, Newton, Georgia (O.C.G.A. § 9-13-161). If the first Tuesday is January 1 or July 4, the sale is the next day. Next: Tuesday, November 3, 2026.
Notice. Each parcel is advertised once a week for the four weeks before the sale in the county's legal organ, the newspaper designated for legal notices (O.C.G.A. § 9-13-140 and following, applied to tax sales by § 48-4-1). Most tax commissioners post the same list on their website.
Who runs it. The Baker County Tax Commissioner, as ex officio sheriff, or the county sheriff, after levying on the property for unpaid taxes (O.C.G.A. § 48-3-3, § 48-4-1).
After the sale. The buyer gets a tax deed, and the former owner and lienholders keep a right to redeem for at least 12 months by paying the price plus a 20% premium (10% more for each later year), O.C.G.A. § 48-4-40 through § 48-4-42. Money bid above the taxes owed is held as excess funds for them under § 48-4-5.
