Any review, retransmission, dissemination or other use of or taking action in reliance upon this information by persons or entities other than the intended recipient is prohibited. If you have received this email in error please contact the sender immediately and delete the material from any computer. Georgia’s “Good Funds Law” is codified at O.C.G.A. § 44-14-13. Under Georgia’s Good Funds Law, a closing attorney may not close and fund a transaction until the attorney has “collected funds” in their escrow account. “Collected funds” means “funds deposited, finally settled and credited to the settlement agent’s escrow account.” Collected funds do not include certified or cashier’s checks. In short, if the amount of money the buyer(s) is required to bring to closing is less than $5,000.00, we can accept a personal check for the amount the buyer(s) owes at closing. However, if the amount of money the buyer(s) are required to bring to closing is in excess of $5,000.00, the buyer(s) must wire transfer the funds to our law office escrow account. We recommend arranging for that transfer at least 24 hours in advance. We would be happy to provide our wiring instructions. 1 **ANY FUNDS THE SELLER IS REQUIRED TO BRING TO CLOSING, MUST BE WIRED. WE WILL NOT ACCEPT A CHECK FROM THE SELLER REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT** - Thank you I agree to pay any copying and/or administrative costs incurred in fulfilling my requests to the extent permitted by Georgia law. Such costs may include copying charges of $.10 per page and administrative charges for search, retrieval, and other direct administrative costs. Administrative charges shall not exceed the salary of the lowest paid full-time employee who, in the discretion of the custodian of the records, has the necessary skill and training to perform the request. A written response to this request will be sent no later than three business days following receipt of this request by the custodian of records.
