Time Range for drawn out eviction in NJ?
I'm looking at a property in NJ that I KNOW will eventually have a hold-out tenant. I'm curious if any of the board members know what NJ's eviction process looks like, with regard to timeline and general costs. I'd like to build it into my calculation for determining whether the deal is worth it.
Of course there are other possible solutions, like cash for keys, but assuming they tenant actually refuses to leave and I have to go the whole way through eviction, what can I expect in terms of legwork, out of pocket costs, and maybe most importantly, time until I can have my unit back to re-rent?
Thanks so much for the help!
