Lithonia GA
I moved into an apartment on the 8th of August 08 when I accepted a job offer
near by the apartment. After three weeks, I lost my job and I could not afford the
apartment any longer. I asked the management of the apartment(apartment complex was owned by a real estate company) what I should do and they told me to write a letter explaining my situation and leave a forwarding address. They wanted me to pay 2 months rent of early termination fee which I did not have. They said maybe I can arrange something with the company and pay off the 2 months rent. I left the apartment on the 29th of August 08 and did all that the management told me to do. When I moved in, I paid half rent for security deposit. I guess I lost it.
In this case, would I have to pay the whole two months rent? I only lived there for 3 weeks and the apartment is as clean as when I moved in. I'm not a US citizen and I'm not in the US anymore. They said that If I don't pay the two months rent, it will go to my credit report. What can I do?
