Property owners receiving notices to pay for copies of deeds

Some property owners are receiving letters similar to this one offering to provide a property deed and other information readily available at the Tallapoosa County Courthouse.

It’s not a scam but property owners are receiving notices that say property deeds and property assessment profiles are available for $95.

Tallapoosa County Probate Judge Talmadge East said there is nothing legally wrong with the service but property owners have less costly alternatives to get copies of deeds just by going to the Tallapoosa County Courthouse.
