Landlord wants to move into unit

Anjali L.
Posted

Hello,

I am a landlord in NJ and wanted to move in myself into one of the units. I gave the tenant two months notice in June stating that I will be moving in September 1. They didn't move out and said they would continue to stay there until the end of their lease which is October 31st. I called them day before and reminded them that I had sent a Notice to Quit. They said they wouldn't move out. I think I will have to file for eviction. Does this classify for emergency eviction since I need to move in? I am also having mental stress issues with my husband and before we part ways, we wanted to live separately for some time. I will also have my parents living with me since my husband doesn't like my parents living with us. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

@Anjali L. So far you've said September, October, and now November. Bottom line, if they have an active lease that they are not violating then they have every right to stay until the end whether it's Sept, Oct, Nov, Jun, or April. A lease isn't just at your convenience. By the sounds of it you're lucky they don't report you for harrassment as well.
