Great info! Wasn't online for 2 days, but watched an expose' that
dealt with homeowners and renters being evicted from homes! (News 12
NJ). Very sad, in the case of renters who are paid up only to be
given eviction notices because the owner defaulted. It's against the
law to evict a renter, simply because the owner defaulted. Didn't
know that and renters should attend whatever workshops available.
When school closed for the holidays, a disabled woman, renting told me
a story about her landlord not providing heat. This was when the temp
was down to 14-19 degrees. I advised her to call Fair Housing in
Freehold and to file a complaint with the Asbury Park Police, for the
record.
Also Code enforcement in City Hall should have been notified. It's
criminal to deprive someone of heat and/or hot water! The lady didn't
seem to know what her options were. She is on Section 8 and I
informed her that Uncle Sam had already paid her rent, so under the
law, she should complain to them, also. Code Enforcement will send a
representative over to the address and survey any violations, contact
the landlord and give them X days, hours or whatever to "fix" these
problems.
