The Eviction Process

Give Notice

Before you can evict a tenant, you must provide them with a written notice to vacate the premises. In Georgia, the notice period depends on the reason for eviction. For non-payment of rent, you must provide a 7-day notice. For lease violations, you must provide a 30-day notice.

File for Eviction

If the tenant does not comply with the notice to vacate, you can file a dispossessory affidavit with the local court. The affidavit must include details about the eviction, such as the reason for eviction, the amount of rent owed, and supporting documentation.

Attend the Court Hearing

Once the dispossessory affidavit has been filed, a court hearing will be scheduled. Both the landlord and tenant must attend the hearing, where a judge will hear arguments from both parties and make a ruling. If the judge rules in favor of the landlord, a writ of possession will be issued, allowing the landlord to take possession of the property.

Protect Your Rights as a Landlord

As a landlord, you have certain rights that must be protected during the eviction process. For example, you have the right to collect rent owed to you, to reclaim damages caused by the tenant, and to regain possession of your property. However, you must also follow the proper legal procedures to have a successful eviction.

For example, you cannot use self-help measures such as changing the locks or turning off utilities to force a tenant to leave. Additionally, you cannot discriminate against tenants based on protected characteristics such as race, gender, or religion.

To increase your chances of a successful eviction, it is important to document all communication and interactions with the tenant. Keep records of rent payments, lease violations, and any issues that arise. Additionally, it is important to hire an experienced attorney who can guide you through the eviction process and ensure that you follow all relevant laws.
