important details

 

you may never forcibly evict a tenant without going through the formal tenant eviction process.

 

if the tenant(s) remain in possession of the property after the notice has expired, you can then proceed with a formal eviction case (also known as a dispossessory action) in local court. however, the eviction process is a large expense and you should try to work it out with the tenant(s) whenever possible.

 

if after the notice is delivered, and the tenant has not complied with the notice (either paid rent, fixed the violation, or vacated the property), you can go to the local court where the property is located and file a dispossessory affidavit. the dispossessory affidavit is a formal oath asking the court to evict the tenant from the property.

  • am i legally allowed to evict tenants for nonpayment of rent in georgia?

    in general, the answer is yes, and you can use a georgia eviction notice (specifically called a notice to pay rent or quit) to begin the process. however, as a result of covid-19, some limitations have been put in place for tenants who have been unable to pay rent. although the federal eviction moratorium was struck down by the u.s. supreme court, the state of georgia has the authority to create and enforce its own standards for residential evictions. check out the talk to a lawyer , if you remain unsure.

  • does a property owner have to write an eviction notice in georgia?

    in order to remove a tenant from a georgia rental property, it can be helpful to serve them a notice of eviction as a first step. even if it isn't always mandated by law, this document can help you avoid going to court (as long as the tenant will comply.) some of the reasons why you might want one are:

    • the tenant is habitually late to pay rent or they are behind on payments
    • the tenant has caused unreasonable damage to the property
    • the tenant creates a nuisance or disturbs the other renters
    • the tenant is using your property illegally
    • the tenant violates the no-pets clause in your lease agreement
    • the tenant gets a subletter in violation of the rental terms

    in addition to these examples, a renter generally may be evicted by a landlord due to reasons unrelated to their personal conduct. for instance, when the owner plans to move back in. keep in mind that the list shown above isn't exhaustive and the permitted reasons for tenant eviction may be different. if you have any concerns with regard to georgia eviction laws, talk to an attorney.

  • how do georgia eviction laws impact me as a property owner?
