New Jersey Notice of Rent Increase
Give written notice before raising rent on a New Jersey tenancy. Follow the lease and New Jersey notice rules. Local rent-control rules can cap the amount even when the notice period is met.
- A month-to-month tenancy generally takes one month’s written notice (N.J. Stat. Ann. § 2A:18-56).
- This notice is not an eviction and not a new lease.
- City rent-control or just-cause rules may still limit the increase.
