Quick question to the people that may have knowledge in the situation.
I used to rent a house two years ago and when my girlfriend at the time moved out (we broke up) I simply just left the house as well and let the rental people knew about it. They wanted something like 4 months rent (6k) and I didn't want to pay it so I just gave them a 20 day warning saying that I'm out.
Fast forward they send me something in the mail saying I owe them money and then they finally take me to collections and say I owe 5k.
Now (16 months later), I'm trying to rent another apartment now in Atlanta and I'm thinking this may get in the way. Is there any ways around this? I tried calling the collection agency and telling them I would pay 2k but they said no. My credit score is still over 700 though.
It's been great not paying rent for 16 months straight because I've been traveling but I plan on spending quite some time in Atlanta working now so I need my own cribbo.
Any advice?
