    Default Roommate Left Property After Getting Kicked Out

    My question involves personal property located in the State of: Georgia

    I kicked my roommate out two weeks ago and he left a lot of property in the house. I would not care about it in a normal situation but I am moving to Washington state in two weeks and I can not for the life of me figure out what to do. I can not find anything online that has this situation in it. All I can find is that you have to hold on to it for a certain amount of time but I do not have that much time and I also don't have his address so I can not contact him. I sent him a couple text stating that he needed to pick up his property and he just responds with K and then never shows up. Any help at all with this question would be great and thank you ahead of time.

    Have you explicitly told him that you are moving as of a specific date, and that the unit will be going back to the landlord on that date?

    You say that you kicked your roommate out -- this was an informal thing you did yourself? Is he on the lease with you, or is he your subtenant?

    I did tell him the specific date that I was moving and that the house will go back to the landlord. I did kick him out on my own, the landlord is an old friend and said he could live there till he got back on his feet. I talked to the landlord about kicking him out and he said it was up to me to do it. I don't think I went about this the right way and I relies that now but I still need help on figuring it out. He was not on the lease and he was not paying rent so I don't think he would be considered and subtenant. Maybe I'm wrong and if I am please correct me.
