May sell rental property

[Chris L.]

HI there,

I have a rental property in NJ that I may be selling. Is there a specific document that you all use to inform the tenant that they will need to move out within a month?  The tenants lease says that I have to give a 30 day notice and right now she is on a month to month as her yearly lease expired a year ago. Im going to give a 45 day notice so that the tenant has time to shop around. Is there specific protocol for letting a tenant know you will be selling or that they need to move out?Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Check your state landlord tenant regulations web site. They often have the forms on line or will explain what is required.

Generally it is simply a letter identifying the tenant and the property description with a statement indicating the lease will not be renewed and providing a date to move out.
