New Jersey Notice of Entry

This Notice of Entry is built with New Jersey as the governing state. These are the New Jersey landlord-tenant rules that most often bear on it, with the statute for each.

Landlord entry & access

New Jersey has no statute setting a general entry-notice period for houses and two-family homes, so the lease should spell out access. In buildings with three or more units (“multiple dwellings”), State housing regulations require tenants to allow access for inspection, maintenance and repair on reasonable notice — ordinarily one day — with immediate access in a safety or structural emergency (N.J.A.C. 5:10-5.1).

Outside those rules, entry should be with the tenant’s consent or on the terms the lease sets, and a landlord may never enter by force. Entering and taking possession or removing belongings without consent or a judgment is an unlawful entry and detainer that can cost the landlord damages, costs and attorney’s fees (N.J.S.A. 2A:39-1 et seq.).
