Unit/Lease Registration in Jersey City / Hudson County NJ
I own a triplex in Jersey City. My units are now all rented. I've been told by a couple of different sources that I need to register my units and/or leases. This would come into play if I ever had to file for an evictions. For background for those who know NJ. I do have a green card, which came with the building when I bought it. The building was empty at the time. I have since renovated and rented it.
What no one seems to be able to tell me is who I need to register the unit/leases with. I talked to the JC Office of Landlord Tenant Relations. They don't care. They only deal with buildings over five units that may be subject to rent regulation. I called the Hudson County housing court. They told me to call the state. I called the state. They said the green card registration was sufficient.
So am I good? Am I missing something?
