Atlanta Legal Aid? Why, by Miriam Pia
Welcome back! Today we are going to address another housing related issue. You may not have known before, but in reality there are two separate sets of housing codes for owner-occupied homes and properties that are being rented out.
This is incredibly important to take into account if you are considering investing in a home. In my own case I had thought that maybe I could buy a home and then rent it out whenever I lived overseas so I could avoid selling it. I did not know about these different codes.
Simply be aware of them, and learn them for your own situation. Also, if you had an idea like mine, be sure to learn both codes and avoid legal troubles.
If you are not the trouble, but someone else is, then contact the Atlanta Legal Aid society about housing code infractions at 404-330-6190.
