Usually the terms for breaking the lease are stated in the lease itself. However, you can also check the statues for landlord/tenant relationships.

Yes, the laws in each state are different. The best action to take is contacting the AG office. This is especially true if you plan to break your apartment lease.

Are there laws in place in Georgia to govern breaking an apartment lease if employment location has changed to another city and state?

I don't know the law in Georgia, but if it is a standard pre-printed lease agreement - READ YOUR LEASE CAREFULLY. Many will have exceptions and 'releases' worded into the lease agreement, that allow "breaking" a lease for unforseen circumstances. Also, try calling your local legal aid office, or landlord/tenant court.

Can the landlord charge the tenant a fee for breaking the lease if the apartment is rented again in few days?

This depends upon whether that fee is quoted on your lease when you signed it. It is not there, then landlord cannot charge you because he rented the apartment quickly after you left. However he may be able to keep your security deposit if you broke your lease. If there was a lease, the terms are generally such that you are responsible for the rent for any month that the apartment is vacant from the time you vacate the apartment to the time the lease ends OR the apartment is rented out, whichever comes first. Since the landlord did not suffer any damage by breaking the lease - he rented out the unit just a few days that you left - there shouldn't really be any reason for him to charge a fee. But if that is stated on your lease then he has the right to do so.

Are there laws in place in Georgia to govern breaking an apartment lease to purchase a house?

There are laws in every state regarding contracts. Unless you can prove a necessary reason to break the lease, such as the place is uninhabital, you are in breach of the terms of the contract. Your landlord may work with you, seeing as you're trying to purchase a house, but he doesn't have to. He is entitled to keep any deposit and can sue for the months he couldn't rent the apartment but should have been receiving rent from you. Good luck.
