As soon as a tenant fails to pay rent, you can file a complaint without waiting 30 days or issuing a separate notice (unless your lease requires one).That being said, it could be a waste of time/fees to run to court because tenants in NJ may come even on rent (even after you win the eviction case) and then they won't be evicted: “The tenant shall have three business days after service of the warrant for removal to pay all rent due.”

Here are additional comments:1) Buying out of state removes any local knowledge you have from assisting in your success, including knowing areas, people and costs. - We always recommend buying your first rental locally if possible and DIY managing to learn as much as possible before investing OOS.2) Lots of crooks and incompetents in the PMC world:( They both cost you money.- As already stated, you'll have a small portfolio.
