A Georgia immediate notice to quit for non-compliance is issued by a landlord to a tenant who has violated the lease terms, excluding non-payment of rent. This formal document serves as a warning, providing the tenant with a specified period to rectify the stated lease violation or vacate the rental property.
The notice outlines the specific lease violation or non-compliance issue that necessitates correction within a given timeframe. Common breaches might include unauthorized subletting, unauthorized pets, or repeated disturbances, among others. Should the tenant fail to remedy the violation within the designated period, the landlord may initiate eviction proceedings.
Governing Law — Ga. Code § 44-7-50.
Notice Types – In Georgia, there are two types of violations for which this notice is issued:
- Curable – The issues that the tenant has the opportunity to rectify within a specified period include minor lease violations, unauthorized occupants, or failure to maintain the premises.
- Noncurable – Serious violations where the tenant is typically not given the opportunity to remedy the situation include illegal activities, significant property damage, or repeated breaches.
