Eviction in New Jersey

[Tarsha Adeyemi]

I purchased a rental property in Irvington NJ that already had two tenants.  I have just found out that the person living in one of the units is not the person that signed the lease.   She had some arrangement with the previous owner.  The other tenant did not pay her rent for October and has advised she will not be able to pay until 11/12 which would make her November rent will be late as well.  Do I have to give notice before I start the eviction process for both tenants?

@Tarsha Adeyemi just want to say that I believe @Scott Weaner is incorrect on this (sorry Scott).  My understanding is that based on N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1(a) Nonpayment of Rent does NOT require a Cease Notice letter sent unless one is required by the lease.  So, here in NJ if they don't pay when they're supposed to, next day you can file to evict.   At least that is what my mouse pad with all the Grounds for Eviction in NJ is telling me.  :)
