Rent increases

Applies. New Jersey has no statewide rent control. Towns may pass their own rent control or rent leveling ordinances, and rent increases must follow notice rules and not be unconscionable. (N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1 et seq.)

Eviction protection

Applies. A landlord may not evict a tenant or refuse to renew a lease, written or oral, without good cause, and must prove the grounds in court. Except for nonpayment of rent, the cause must be described in detail in a written Notice to Quit, and a court judgment for possession is required before the tenant must move. (N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1 to 61.12)

Security deposit

Applies. A landlord cannot collect a security deposit of more than one and one-half times one month's rent, and yearly increases to the deposit cannot exceed 10% of the current deposit. Prepaid rent such as last month's rent counts toward the cap. (N.J.S.A. 46:8-21.2)

Application fees

Applies. A landlord or agent cannot charge more than $50 as an application or similar fee to apply to lease or sublease a residential rental. The cap is adjusted yearly for CPI increases. (N.J.S.A. 46:8-18.1; P.L. 2025, c.405)

Tenant screening

Applies. A landlord cannot ask about your criminal record until after making you a conditional offer. After the offer, only certain serious, recent convictions may be considered, and the landlord must do an individualized assessment and give written reasons if the offer is withdrawn. (N.J.S.A. 46:8-52 to 46:8-64 (P.L. 2021, c.110))

Applies. Landlords may not use software, algorithms or data-sharing platforms to coordinate or recommend rents, lease terms or occupancy. (Hoboken City Code ch. 158-2)

period of time for a resident to comply with the notice must be reasonable under the circumstances (Brunswick Street Assocs . v. Gerard, 357 N.J. Super. 598 (2002)). After serving a “Notice to Quit,” on the tenant, the landlord may file suit for an eviction. If a suit for eviction is filed and the landlord wins his case, he may be granted a Judgment for Possession. A Judgment for Possession terminates the tenancy and allows the landlord to have the tenant evicted from the rental premises. No residential landlord may evict or fail to renew a lease, whether it is a written or an oral lease without good cause. The landlord must be able to prove in court that he has grounds for an eviction. 33 Applicability The Anti-Eviction Act applies to most residential rental properties including single-family homes, mobile homes and land in a mobile home park, apartment buildings, and complexes. This law also applies to rooming and boarding homes (N.J.S.A. 2A:18-53 to -84). Exceptions This law may not apply to two - or three-unit owner-occupied premises with two (2) or fewer rental units.

n owner-occupied two-, or three-family dwelling. A tenant in an owner- occupied two-, or three-family dwelling may, however, make this provision applicable to their tenancy 30 days after sending a written request to the landlord that the landlord fulfill the requirements of the Security Deposit Law. In New Jersey, the landlord is not required to collect a security deposit from the tenant, however, if they do, they must follow prescribed rules and regulations (N.J.S.A. 46:8-26). The maximum-security deposit to be collected by the landlord cannot be more than one and one-half times one month’s rent ( N.J.S.A. 46:8-21.2 ). It can be less. Any additional yearly security deposit increase may not exceed 10% of the current security deposit. A landlord may not charge a pet security deposit if it exceeds one and one-half times one month’s rent when combined with the regular security deposit. In the case of Brownstone Arms v. Asher, 121 N.J. Super. 401 13 (1972), and Reilly v. Weiss, 406 N.J. Super. 71 (2009), the courts determined that advanced rents in excess of one and one-half times the monthly re

Discrimination Under State and federal laws, it is illegal for a landlord or rental agency to refuse to rent or discriminate in the rental of housing units.
