Emotional support animal - state and federal law
Here is my situation hoping folks on here can help provide thoughts:
I own a 3 family home in New Jersey. I occupy 1 unit and advertised the other 2 for rent with a "no pet" policy. Prospective tenant informed me that he has a emotional support animal.
I believe the FHA exempts multi-families of 4 units or less that are owner occupied. The language in the NJ Law against Discrimination, limits exemptions to 2 family homes where the owner occupied 1 unit.
Does this mean based on NJ state law My property is not exempt?
I had an applicant that disclosed an emotional support dog when they came to see the place. Have not received an application. But want to be clear on how to go about handing the application.
thanks,
satha
