What to know before buying in Roswell
Conforming vs. jumbo
In 2026 the conforming loan limit for a single-family home in Fulton County is $832,750. Loans above that are jumbo loans, which usually need a larger down payment and more savings in reserve.
Georgia homestead exemption
If the home will be your main residence, apply for a homestead exemption with the Fulton County tax assessor’s office. The deadline is April 1 for that tax year.
Closing costs in Georgia
Buyers typically pay Georgia’s intangible recording tax on the loan: $1.50 per $500 borrowed (0.3%). Sellers usually pay the state transfer tax of $1 per $1,000 of the price.
Older homes, updated
Many Roswell homes were built in the 1980s or earlier. If you’d like to renovate, a renovation loan can roll the cost of the updates into your mortgage.
