State Laws
Minimum Termination: A tenant can terminate the lease with at least 30 days’ written notice. Landlords must provide tenants with at least 60 days’ notice (§ 44-7-7).
Increasing Rent: There is no statewide cap on rent increases in Georgia, and state law prohibits counties and municipalities from enacting rent control ordinances (§ 44-7-19). Landlords must provide at least 60 days’ notice before raising the rent, as the increase fundamentally alters the lease terms (§ 44-7-7).
