The owner intends to permanently retire the mobile home park identified above from residential use and use as a mobile home park under N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1(h).

The owner will obtain all required permits or approvals before any eviction under N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.1b. If land-use law does not permit nonresidential use as a principal permitted use, or limits it to accessory, conditional, or public use, that section creates a rebuttable presumption against permanent retirement.
This is the written notice to quit and demand for delivery of possession required by N.J.S.A. 2A:18-61.2(d). You are asked to vacate and deliver possession of your site on or before [__/__/____].

The vacate date stated above is ☐ at least 18 months after delivery of this notice ☐ later under the lease or another applicable rule. If the lease lasts longer, the filing date must be later as well. A court order is required before possession can be recovered through an eviction action.
If you own the home on the site, contact the owner about removal arrangements. This notice does not determine ownership of the home or waive any statutory tenant protections.

Landlord-tenant paperwork governs who can stay in a property, on what terms, and what happens when something goes wrong. Leases, notices to quit, security deposit demands, and habitability complaints all have state and often city-specific requirements for timing, content, and service. Getting the paperwork right is what makes an eviction actually succeed or a security deposit actually come back, because judges regularly dismiss cases over small procedural mistakes.
