She said if I didn’t have my own well by a certain date she will void the contract and put me out. Can she do that?
Look at the lease or have an attorney look at it.
As a general rule, the landlord is responsible for all repairs and improvements.
The fastest way to resolve this is to force the landlord to show you where in the lease/rent to own contract that you can be required to put in a... Read more »
Not unless the lease requires it.
If they filed a dispossessory action against you in court, that filing will be on the court records and therefore on your rental history. If an eviction shows up on your record, you should dispute it.
In short, yes.
There is no legal requirement to accept government government to keep you in the house.

Your second paragraph is answered "It depends." The devil is in the wording of the documents.
The first paragraph does not ask a question.
If your question is only one question involving both paragraphs, again the answer would be "It depends."
Sorry. This is not a legal question. You'll have to figure this one out on your own.

Honestly, there are too many moving parts in your situation. It would be best for you to sit down with an attorney to discuss the problems you have individually and more specifically.

What is your question?
If you complied with lease or law by giving her notice and she refused to leave, file a dispossessory action against her to start the eviction process.

You may be protected if there isn't an early termination provision in the lease or if you are not at the end of your lease.
Georgia does not have a for cause statute that requires the landlord to renew the lease, except for cause.
What do I do ??? I really don’t feel prepared to move in I didn’t really think it through and this is a student apt
Well, if you are an adult and you signed the lease, you are likely to be bound to it. The LL is simply trying to collect the rent for the apartment. It can be from your or someone else.
I am the landlord, lease is terminated with tenant. My lease has plenty for terminating early and hold over fee as well. I notified my tenant with letter and email. He acknowledged. He didn't move out since he wasn't able to get a place. I let him stay due to covid. Know he give me 60... Read more »
You have made a mistake. Hire a competent attorney to file an eviction action for possession only today. You are only loosing rent monies dealing with the tenant in this fashion.

A Georgia attorney could advise best, but your post remains open for three weeks. At this point, you could continue to await a response or you could reach out to attorneys. You can use the tab above (Find-a-Lawyer), or search for attorneys independently on your own. Good luck

When you saying eviction, what do you mean?
In Georgia, if the landlord filed a dispossesory action in court, but the sheriffs/marshals haven't come out to supervise the ejectment, the landlord cannot turn off the power, water, or gas. In fact, that is considered a wrongful eviction.... Read more »
