Back in October of 2022, Fulton County's Clerk of Superior & Magistrate court launched an online property notification too called "R. E. A. A. C. T." or Real Estate Activity Alert & Contract Tool.

You can never be too cautious when it comes to protecting your home, land or real estate investment. I urge each of my clients to take a moment and sign up for this valuable service.
