If I didnt sign early my rent will go up to a month to month basic
Look at your lease.
Leases usually give a required notice of renewal or nonrenewal of 30 or 60 days before it expires.
Normally, within that time frame, a new lease is signed.
I own a home in Alpharetta, GA, I believe transferring ownership from myself to an LLC I own would allow the LLC to expense mortgage payments and Repairs & Maintenance costs as a cost of maintaining the property for tenants. I also believe the LLC could capitalize costs related to capital... Read more »
Yes you technically can, but it doesn't work. You end up netting if it works out well and you have to defend it in an audit. It always ends up being net taxable when the IRS recalculates the FMV of the rental.
Once you run all the numbers it's comes out that you create tax out of... Read more »
How were you kicked out?
Did the landlord remove your items and change the locks?
What do you mean no reason?
Are you saying the notice to vacate did not explain why there was an early termination?
Because the lease controls,for the most part, I would have to see the lease.
She is saying she cannot find a satisfactory place to live. Meanwhile her job is suspended at the North Fulton community charities.
You can do the following:
1. Send an immediate vacate notice
2. E-file the dispossessory affidavit
3. Serve through a private process server.
4. This will put you in line to get heard when the courts open up. Note, it is a very long line.
A landlord can file a dispossessory in court. However, the courts are closed for civil matters until May 13. Therefore, a hearing on a case that is filed this month is unlikely to be heard before the end of May or the beginning of June.
However, the size of your county will have an... Read more »
Tenant has failed to pay rent for 2 months. With the month of May around the corner, if he doesn't pay he will be 3 months behind. Prior to this pandemic he always paid late and now he just won't pay at all. I've issued him a Pay Rent or Quit notice which gave him 7 days to pay and... Read more »
The next step is to file the dispossessory. Some Magistrate courts allow e-file. If e-file isn't an option, you may be able to hand deliver it or mail it.
If you are still uncertain about the process, you can contact me demandingjustice@gmail.com.

I assume the rental was going n Georgia.
Look at your lease in the "notice" section. It states the type of notices that are acceptable. If e-mails to the person who you sent the notice is in that section, you shouldn't owe anything.
In some jurisdictions within Georgia, it can constitute a code violation to have a junk vehicle (e.g. inoperable or which does not bear current registration, current license plate or current state-required inspection sticker) in your driveway, without being in a completely closed structure. I... Read more »
I signed a pre lease agreement and paid required deposit to move into an apartment. I voluntarily paid first months rent also. Do I get the rent portion back?
I suggest you have an attorney review your pre-lease agreement in order to determine your rights. They will need to know the date you signed the pre-lease, whether you were accepted or declined, and the date you were notified of your acceptance or denial. There may be language in the lease that... Read more »

There is no clause in my lease regarding landlord terminating lease early
Yes, the landlord can sell the property,
BUT
the new landlord takes subject to your current lease. That means he steps into the shoes of your landlord.
I assume there isn't a sale provision in the lease that allows the purchaser to terminate the lease.
is this legal
Yes, it's legal
He does not have to renew your lease.
However, check the lease to see if he has a deadline to give you formal notice if nonrenewal.
Also, if the landlord sells the house before the lease is up, the new owner will take subject to the lease. That means... Read more »
Office is closed for Corona Virus, however I have always walked my check into the office. Surely they could pick up mail weekly and process my check. Do not want to jeopardize my credit rating, but can't do online banking. Do I have the right to mail my check?
I would think you would be able to mail in the payment to the apartment office. Someone must be checking the mail there and it will get processed. Some people, such as yourself, don’t have online banking. Since you always pay it by check I think it would be okay if you mail it in this time.... Read more »

What is the rule regarding children?
How are you allegedly violating it?
Is this rule anywhere in the document you signed when you checked in or near the check-in desk?

You should look at the terms of the lease. Provisions that may be helpful are "Force Majeure", condemnation, and casualty.

Our tenant filed Chapter 13 bankruptcy in December 2018 but did not tell me until 72 days after filling (informally forwarded email from BK trustee saying their filing was approved).
I was never notified by the bankruptcy trustee, am not listed as a creditor on the mailing matrix, and... Read more »
