N.J.S.A. 46:8-19 caps a security deposit at 1.5 times one month's rent, returned within 30 days after the lease ends. Under the Anti-Eviction Act, N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1, nonpayment needs no notice to quit before suit, while habitual late payment needs a written notice to cease and a month's notice after that.
What it means for an owner
