It has come to the New Jersey Public Advocate’s attention that some tenants are being inappropriately forced out of their homes when the building in which they are living has been foreclosed. Under NJ law, most tenants have the right to remain in their homes during and after a foreclosure.

Finally, if you know of a tenant in a foreclosed property who requires assistance, please have them contact the Department of the Public Advocate, Office of Citizen Relations, at (609) 826-5070.
