If his 60 days are up, you can file for the dispossessory affidavit tomorrow when the Clerk of Court office is open. You would be filing on him as a "holdover" tenant; in other words, you have provided him the adequate notice (60 days) required by Georgia statutes to terminate a "tenancy at...

You need to provide us with more information than what you posted. Are you saying you provided a security deposit on a rental unit, changed your mind regarding renting this property and the landlord is now refusing to return this deposit? If so, did you sign a lease or obtain a verbal...

Legally, at the most, your mother might be considered a month to month tenant in this situation but even that is highly unlikely. The relatives can begin the process of evicting her and, unfortunately, she really has no rights to remaining in this house. As has been stated, this fellow should...

The simple answer is this: 1. You would owe rent until a suitable tenant is found to replace you or 2. Your lease ends How about offering to help your landlord find a suitable replacement for yourself? Gail

Has your landlord provided you with information as to why your security deposit has not been returned? For example, did you move out owing rent or leaving damages above normal wear and tear? Gail

OP, you do understand (perhaps not) that most "mold" is simply mildew and is often found in warm moist places such as bathrooms...especially if these bathrooms do not have ventilation such as ceiling fans or windows to let out the moist air from showers or tub baths. This mildew is not...

Your personal belongings weren't covered by your renters insurance??? Gail

How could your landlord evict you all in a weeks worth of time? This is confusing. Gail

"might not renew the lease" means nothing legally. Either tell the landlord you wish to renew your lease or that you will not. He is assuming you will not (and from your vague notice he has every right to assume this) and is beginning the process of finding replacement tenants when your lease...

In Georgia this would be one month after the move out. However, I'm getting the idea that the offer for the early move out was premised for May and September of 2013 and NOT November and that the landlords may not be honoring these offers at all. Gail

Ummm..do you have a legal question? Gail

The apartment complex (I'm going to assume it wasn't "the apartment" talking here) was quite generous in advising you about the restraining order. Usually they don't get into such silly fights between siblings because letting one off the lease typically means the other can't pay the full rent...

You've got two choices... 1. Argue with them until you are blue in your face and your new tenants can't move in because the utilities can't be turned on. 2. Pay the bills and late fees and take these off next years taxes as a deduction for landlord expenses. In many communities water and...

Of course he can sue. And he is very likely to because, frankly, why would he believe a tenant is going to pay "little by little" what they owe once they have moved out? Gail

Unfortunately there is no law in Wisconsin that a carpet has to be replaced in a rental every so many years. Would it be beneficial for you to purchase a large throw rug to place on top of the current one for your daughter to be on. Or for you to pay the cost of getting the current one...

Your posting is a bit confusing. You indicate you have resided there for the past three years. Have you been on yearly leases during this time? If so, what notice have you given to renew your side of the lease? I'm also not certain why you are worried and mad since your posting indicates you...

What I provided in my first posting were options to this tenant regarding repair issues in Virginia that may not have been addressed by the landlord....if he/she bothered reading this. Gail

Non-working air condition or insect "infestation"??? It's best to get your excuses for breaking a lease correct before you continue further. Gail

No. Virginia does give tenants some options if landlords do not address repair request but being able to break the lease is not one of them...

Nothing in court is a "slam dunk". What did you file for? Gail
