Best Answer

No, you cannot legally sign any Contracts or Leases until the age of majority, which is 18. Strangely, you can leave home at 17 (which is the age when you can go to adult jail in Georgia), although parents cannot kick you out until age 18. So you can legally leave at 17, but you cannot put an apartment in your name until 18.

What do you mean by lease?

A lease is similar to rent, except it is a contract for a specific length of time. For instance, if you have a one-year lease on an apartment, it means you are agreeing to pay rent each month for a year. If you want to move out before the year is up, you may be required to pay for the rest of the year.
