Legal Tip: Useful Tips to Verify Addresses
It is important to have the correct and complete address (along with the right city and county) shown on all listing agreements, published listings, and contracts.
Below are a couple of helpful websites to verify the address, to supply the zip code, and to confirm the city and county.

Title searches and property tax reports are based on having the correct county information in the contract. However, it is also necessary to have the correct city and zip code for the mailing address.
Some properties can use different city names, such as Dunwoody vs. Atlanta or Chamblee vs. Atlanta. Either one may be correct, and the zip code will be the same either way. If the property is being appraised, it will be necessary to match the address used by the appraiser, as long as it is one of the correct ways.
For legal purposes, the description of the property is based on a reference to a specific lot on a recorded plat or a long legal description with distances and angles.
The mailing address is established by the post office. Sometimes street names are changed, but this does not affect the legal description of the property.
