Legal Question in Landlord & Tenant Law in Georgia

apartment lease agreement

I moved out of the apartment on june 19, 2006. The apartment manager and i agreed to use my $600.00 deposit to cover the july rent and that will take me off the lease as they need that one month to get another renter to rent the apt. We agreed upon this term and i left for the state of california.

To my surprise, i just found out that the leasing company did not honor their agreement. They had put collection of $1200.00 on my credit report for the month of august and september

Re: apartment lease agreement

You didn't ask a question. However, I will tell you that you can sue the apartment complex for breach of contract to get the collection taken of your credit and any accompanying damages.

If you would like to discuss any issues further, please feel free to contact my office. My contact information is below. Thank you.
