New Jersey A585 ensures landlords receiving rental assistance comply with housing standards and eviction actions use inspection findings.

New Jersey A585 mandates the Department of Community Affairs to periodically consult a Statewide electronic database of residential rental property inspection findings. This ensures landlords receiving rental assistance comply with local, State, and federal housing standards and promptly correct any violations. The bill also allows the continuation of rental assistance if the unit can be occupied safely while the owner abates violations.
