New Jersey Eviction Laws: 3-Day Notice to Quit
Use a 3-day notice to quit if a Tenant:
- Engages in disorderly conduct that’s disruptive to neighbors or other Tenants
- Intentionally damages the property or damages the property by being grossly negligent
BEFORE issuing a 3-day notice to quit, Landlords must issue a New Jersey Notice to Cease. If the Tenant fails to comply with the Notice to Cease, issue the 3-day notice. The 3-day notice should:
- Describe the Tenant’s Lease violation(s)
- Notify the Tenant of the date by which the Tenant must vacate the property
- Advise the Tenant that failure to comply will lead to eviction proceedings against them
- New Jersey Lease Agreement: This state-specific Lease is customizable and includes NJ laws.
