Georgia prepayment penalty rules

For high-cost home loans, Georgia permits prepayment penalties only in the first 24 months after closing, with caps of 2% of the amount prepaid in the first 12 months and 1% in the second 12 months. No prepayment penalties are allowed after 24 months. For non-high-cost first-lien mortgage loans, the provided statute does not impose any state-specific restriction; federal law may apply.
