you need to talk to a lawyer and get some assistance.

New Jersey has some pretty strict laws that may prevent you from evicting the tenants, and depending where your property is in Hudson County, there may be some city laws that affect you also.

I agree with Bob. Unless there is cause, or someone in your immediate family will be occupying, termination is difficult, due to lack of housing supply. Most courts will allow a good tenant time to find replacement housing, and as long as the tenant timely pays the rent, the courts will shun eviction. I suggest writing now, informing tenant lease will not be renewed on termination, and hope that tenant will move voluntarily. This is a response to an Internet question and the reply is for information purposes only, and is not intended to be legal advice or as creating an attorney-client relationship.
