In fact, only Connecticut, Georgia, Louisiana, and South Carolina still require two witnesses to the execution of a lease.
No, lease agreements do not need to be notarized in Georgia. Some states require leases of a certain length to be notarized, but that is not the case here. If the landlord and tenant agree, they can have the lease notarized for additional legal protections.
In fact, all terms and requirements must be in writing in order to be legally binding. Georgia law also requires security deposits to be held in an escrow account, as opposed to being deposited into the landlord's own account.
