Renting by the room in New Jersey

[Ted Felsberg]

Hey BP! I need some help.

I am very interested in learning about local zoning rules for renting by the room. Ie how many people can live in a single family dwelling legally. I’m looking into the areas of Martin, Voorhees, Cherry Hill NJ.

I have been looking online with at zoning websites for those towns and I just can’t find it anywhere. I found tons of info about signs, parking lots, trash, helipads etc. but nothing about what I need to know.

Does anyone have a good way to find the right site? Or perhaps there is a certain phrase that I should be searching for?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Does anyone know offhand of any towns, particularly in Northern NJ, that definitely allow rent-by-room?

Voorhees doesn’t allow single family dwelling to be rented by room. Best and easier way to find information is to call township code enforcement office.

@Ankit Patel that’s awesome information thank you very much.

I’m going to look into some other towns in South Jersey.
