S 3641 New Jersey Senate · 2026-2027 Regular Session

Requires landlord to provide written explanation for rent increase on tenant of senior citizen housing project.

This bill requires landlords in senior citizen housing projects to provide tenants with a written explanation when increasing rent. The explanation must detail why the increase is fair (not "unconscionable"), confirm compliance with local rent laws, and list specific property expenses that justified the increase. It applies only to tenants living in housing projects specifically designated as "senior citizen housing" under existing law. Landlords must provide this written notice alongside any rent increase notice, enhancing transparency for senior renters.
