(b) In order to be deemed to have offered a tenant or a mobile home owner a reasonable
opportunity to examine and rent comparable housing, a landlord, or a person clearly
authorized by a letter to the tenant or mobile home owner to be the landlord's agent, must
offer a comparable rental unit or mobile home park site fulfilling the definition of
"comparable housing" set forth in N.J.A.C. 5:24-1.2. An offer of comparable housing must
include the following elements:

1. The offer must be made with reasonable notice in order to give the tenant or mobile
home owner a fair opportunity to examine and rent the unit or mobile home park site.
Reasonable notice must be given to the tenant or mobile home owner by personal service or
certified mail no less than 72 hours in advance, exclusive of legal holidays, of the
opportunity to examine comparable housing;

2. If the landlord of the proposed comparable unit or mobile home park site should reject
the application of any tenant or mobile home owner for such comparable housing, the offer
shall not be construed as an offer of comparable housing as required in these rules; and

3. In no case shall a comparable rental unit or mobile home park site be deemed to have
been offered if it was not available to be rented to the tenant or mobile home owner.
