Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Georgia
Apartment lease renewal
My question is how much money can be inceased at the renewal of the rental lease of apartment?
I rent an apartment with $675/ a month with $310 of concession when we moved in this apartment. and I got the notice for the renewal of my rental of an apartment. In the letter, they said that they offer $785/month.
I am just wondering if there is any law for the increasement of the money for next renewal of an apartment.

Re: Apartment lease renewal
In Georgia, the answer would be as much as the market will withstand. We don't have rent control in Georgia. The only places that I recall still have rent control are Santa Monica, California and, perhaps, certain situations in NYC. The sky is the limit, unless there is a clause in your lease limiting increases. These paragraphs sometimes appear in commercial leases, but almost never in residential leases. Hugh Wood
