Establishes the "Safe and Sanitary Rental Housing Act" to improve safety and sanitation standards in rental housing.

The "Safe and Sanitary Rental Housing Act" aims to address substandard rental housing conditions in New Jersey by enhancing landlord registration requirements, inspection protocols, and tenant protections. The act mandates that landlords register with the Department of Community Affairs, providing detailed personal and property information. It requires landlords to annually certify the accuracy of their registration and face penalties for non-compliance. Inspections of hotels and multiple dwellings are to be conducted based on tiered schedules, with fees set by the commissioner.
