My question involves landlord-tenant law in the State of: New Jersey
I started a 1 year lease(as tenant) on Nov 15 2015, ending Nov 14 2016. I had deposited 1.5 months worth of rent as security deposit. After the end of the 1-year term, there was no communication and I continued to stay(and still am) in the property. Now, I'd like to vacate the apartment effective Sep 30 2017, but in a verbal conversation my landlord mentioned she'd expect me to pay in full till 14 Nov. As I understand, my case should be treated as a month on month lease, as the original term ended and lease was not renewed. I'd like to know -
1. Is my understanding above correct?
2. What's the best way for me to notify my landlord?
3. As of today, I have paid rent till 14 Sep. Should I pay rent for the remaining 16 days on 15 Sep, and then expect my deposit back, or can I ask the landlord to deduct 16 days worth of rent and return my deposit?
4. Anything else I should be careful about?
Apprec iate any help/guidance.
