Local Tips Most Guides Miss

1. Use parcel ID everywhere: It is the safest way to connect assessor records, tax bills, GIS maps, and deed clues.

3. Check homestead after closing: New owners should verify homestead filing instead of assuming it carries over.
4. Use GIS for visual confirmation: GIS helps locate parcels but does not replace a survey.

6. Use book/page when available: It can take you directly to a land record in GSCCCA.
