Tips for renting in Lawrenceville, GA

Renters’ rights are consistent across the Greater Atlanta area. Issues to look out for include the absence of a 72-hour (or any time increment) “cooling off” period that might enable a renter to change his or her mind after signing a lease. Once you sign a lease in Georgia, there is no turning back, and early termination penalties are fair game for a landlord.

It’s also important to know that potential tenants are legally allowed to inspect the apartment before moving in if they’re required to give a security deposit. All landlords have to give new tenants a list of existing damages prior to moving in. Georgia also has a “repair and deduct” law that says a renter can bill the landlord for any repairs that aren’t fixed in a reasonable amount of time.
