Program 3: Sheriff/Marshal Deed Program
Background: The MALB engaged outside counsel to complete Quiet Title Actions on 160 Sheriff/Marshal Deeds (tax deeds). The City of Atlanta authorized $400,000 in funding to the MALB for legal assistance in the clearing of title for the first phase of 40 properties deemed most suitable for construction. In 2024, title was cleared on 15 of the 40 properties, all of which were vacant lots, to ensure clean, clear title. Marketable titles are now available on all properties. The MALB listed the first batch of 15 vacant lots for sale with marketable titles to its website and posted on all social media platforms. Affordable development was a requirement for all lots with pricing based on the Fee Simple Purchase Policy approved by the MALB Board in March 2024. Completion of a purchase application was required for all.
