THIS BUILDING (PARK) HAS BEEN CONVERTED TO A CONDOMINIUM OR COOPERATIVE OR
TO FEE SIMPLE OWNERSHIP OF THE DWELLING UNITS OR PARK SITES. YOUR TENANCY
CAN BE TERMINATED UPON 60 DAYS NOTICE IF YOUR APARTMENT (OR PARK SITE) IS
SOLD TO A BUYER WHO SEEKS TO PERSONALLY OCCUPY IT. IF YOU MOVE OUT AS A
RESULT OF RECEIVING SUCH A NOTICE, AND THE LANDLORD ARBITRARILY FAILS TO
COMPLETE THE SALE, THE LANDLORD SHALL BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR TREBLE DAMAGES
AND COURT COSTS.
(b) If a tenant whose tenancy began after the conversion was initiated and was not given
proper notice as provided in (a) above, the tenant will have the right to a three year notice
as provided for in the previous portion of these regulations.

(c) If an owner has given the proper statement as part of the lease as described in (a)
above, the owner will still be required to provide a 60-day notice prior to instituting court
action for eviction which specified the cause in detail and is served personally as required
for any eviction. The notice must say that the apartment has been sold to a buyer who
seeks to personally occupy it.

Amended by R.1985 d.529, effective October 21, 1985.

§ 5:24-1.10 Landlord's liability
