How FANS Keeps Georgians Informed About Property Records

Are you a homeowner in Georgia?  Have you heard about scams where fake deeds are used to take over a property?

If so, check out the Filing Activity Notification System (FANS). Developed by the Georgia Superior Court Clerks’ Cooperative Authority (GSCCCA), FANS is a valuable tool that helps residents keep track of important real estate and personal property records.

The GSCCCA was created in 1993 by an act of the Georgia General Assembly. Its focus is on acquiring, developing and distributing record management systems, information, services, supplies and materials that benefit both Superior Court Clerks and the citizens of Georgia. 

How can it help you?

  • FANS allows you to monitor any filings related to your property within the state of Georgia.
  • It’s a free, voluntary program that provides electronic notifications about filing activity.
  • By opting in, you’ll receive alerts whenever something is filed in your name or property address.

Why FANS Matters: Combatting Scams

  • Beware of companies that charge fees to monitor your property—they maybe a scam.
  • FANS empowers citizens to monitor their assets independently, without any cost.
  • It’s one way to stay ahead. If something did happen, you will know before it is too late!

User-Friendly and Flexible

  • FANS accommodates various ways people sign their names or are referred to.
  • You can input multiple names to cover all possibilities.
  • It’s designed to ensure ease of use. When we tested it with our own information, it took approximately 10 minutes (which included reading through their policy information).
