New Jersey A4588 requires owners of multiple dwellings with three or more floors to prioritize senior citizens and disabled residents for lower floor.

New Jersey A4588 mandates that owners of multiple dwellings with three or more floors must give priority to senior citizens and disabled residents when they seek to move to a lower floor unit. These qualifying residents are granted the right of first refusal over other applicants and non-qualifying residents. The bill also requires the owner to post a sign with information about this priority status. This provision does not affect existing affordability, targeting, or income restrictions unless the tenant agrees to a different unit size.
