How can Roswell homeowners protect themselves from deed theft?

Roswell homeowners protect themselves by periodically searching their own name against Fulton County property records through the GSCCCA to catch any unauthorized deed or lien filed against their home. Some counties also offer a free property fraud alert service that emails you when a document is recorded under your name, which is worth signing up for if available. Reporting anything suspicious to the county clerk and a real estate attorney immediately limits how far a fraudulent filing can go.
