My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: Georgia
A few months back all of the housemates had said they would be moving out at lease end, and I told the landlord I would be staying on by myself, which they verbally agreed to. The landlord later demanded that I replace said housemates in order to continue the lease. Midway through the last month of the lease, the landlord decided to refuse extending the lease under any circumstances, has not asked to requalify myself, has not presented new paperwork, or anything. I had contractual obligations that had me out of state much of the last month of the lease, and now that the lease is up the landlord is demanding I vacate or pay rent, with no new lease, nor even a month-to-month agreement, and being told they "already have a new tenant ready to move in"
I have a lot to move and lot of contractual obligations that will prevent me from devoting a large block of time to moving.
