How much notice do I have to give?

How much notice you owe before ending a lease depends entirely on what your specific lease agreement states, since Georgia does not set one universal notice period for all residential leases the way some other legal relationships require. Month-to-month tenancies in Georgia generally require notice before the next rental period begins, but a fixed-term lease usually runs its full term regardless of notice unless the lease itself allows early termination. Reading your actual lease document is the only reliable way to know your specific obligation. Joel Boss can point renters toward a real estate attorney if a lease question gets complicated.
