Tenants in New Jersey have strong protections, including the right to safe and habitable housing, privacy with proper notice before landlord entry, protection against unlawful or retaliatory eviction, and the timely return of security deposits within strict legal limits. Landlords must follow formal eviction procedures, comply with lease and rent control rules where applicable, and maintain the property under state housing standards, with robust tenant safeguards under state law.
