Selling a Luxury Home in Alpharetta, Milton or Johns Creek

The short answer

Buyers of luxury homes here ask the same questions this guide answers: which city, which taxes, which schools, and what the association allows. Sellers who have those answers ready, with the tax bill, the survey, the septic records and the association documents, give buyers fewer reasons to hesitate. Gold Peach Realty lists homes and features them on this guide.

Questions buyers ask

Do my homestead exemptions transfer to the buyer?

No. Exemptions belong to the owner who files; a buyer files for their own by April 1 of the first year they want it.

Who sets the value on my Fulton County tax bill?

The Fulton County Board of Assessors sets property values; the City of Alpharetta bills and collects its own city taxes.
