Abstract

The Act serves to increase protections for tenants of residential properties in Georgia. Also known as the “Safe at Home Act,” the Act’s main provision requires that all rental residences are fit for human habitation. Additionally, the Act sets a maximum amount for security deposits and gives a tenant that is late on a rental or utility payment three additional days before a landlord may petition a court for an eviction.
