Advice on how to evict problem tenant

[lcc123]

I have a problem tenant that rents a room in a multitenant house that I own. This person has little respect for either of the other two roommates and is either lazy or just a slob. They are in the 2nd month of a 6 month lease. I am going to offer to break the lease and refund their deposit if they are willing to move out and leave their room in good condition. If they decline, which I anticipate they will, what options do I have? Can I give 30 or 60 days notice that I am terminating their lease?

Unfortunately (or maybe fortunately, depending on how much energy I have each day), being lazy or a slob are not justifiable reasons for you terminating a lease.

Thanks, someone else had recently indicated that in another post I made.

Is landlord/tenant law your area of specialization and are you registered in GA? I am interested in consulting with an attorney locally (Atlanta area)? How is the best way to contact you. You can email me at: lc_controls@yahoo.com
