What do I want to add to a standard NJ lease?

I'm completing the renovation of my first property.  So, I'm going to be looking to lease the units.  This means I need a lease.   This is in NJ.  A broker I've been working with send me the NJ Association of Realtors standard lease.  I'm sure this is fine as far as it goes.  I'm guessing it likely doesn't go far enough, and I'll likely need a rider to cover more issues.  This brings up a some questions:

- Should I use this lease as a base, or is there a better form lease to start with?

- What items should I add to a standard lease?  Are there are things that usually get left off that need to be covered.

Any help appreciated.  I'm especially looking for help from NJ landlords/investors who have state specific knowledge.
