Requires distribution of certain eviction prevention information.
This bill requires landlords (excluding small owner-occupied properties) to provide tenants with free, bilingual (English/Spanish) eviction prevention materials within 30 days of the Department of Community Affairs making them available. The materials include a statement of tenant and landlord rights, plus a separate pamphlet or electronic document listing specific resources like the New Jersey Eviction Guide, the Office of Eviction Prevention, and eviction prevention programs. Landlords must distribute these to existing tenants annually and to new tenants at lease signing or renewal. The Department updates these materials yearly, and tenants can request copies by mail or email.
