Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia

covenants

How can I find out how long restrictive covenants are in effect in a subdivision with no homeowners association in effect? I live in Paulding County in Acworth, Georgia.

Reason for my question, I wish to fence my entire yard due to neighbors pet damage and neighbor problems in general.

Thank you.

Re: covenants

Hire a lawyer in Paulding County for a title search on your land. All of the restrictive covenants should be on file in the CourtHouse records. An experienced title searcher should also be able to find them for you. All of the information should be contained in the "back chain" on your title.
