S 3390 New Jersey Senate · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Requires notification of pet presence in seasonal rental unit.

This bill requires owners of seasonal rental units (like vacation homes rented for up to 125 days through platforms such as Airbnb) to inform prospective renters before booking if pets are regularly present or will be in the unit within two weeks of their stay. Renters with pet allergies or concerns can cancel and receive a full refund if the owner fails to disclose this, provided they notify the owner within 12 hours of entering the unit. The law takes effect January 1, 2025, and exempts real estate agents acting as owners' representatives from liability for undisclosed pet information. It directly affects seasonal renters and property owners, aiming to prevent unexpected pet exposure.
