Renting an apartment in New Jersey isn't easy; and finding a place that allows pets can be even more difficult. It can be tough to leave your pet alone and indoors all day in, by animal standards, a pretty confined place.
However, we at Garden State Apartments are fond of all animals and we pride ourselves on our ability to help you find pet friendly apartments in NJ as well as offer helpful advice in our NJ apartment guide. New Jersey apartment owners are typically worried about damage to the apartment and grounds of the apartment building that can be caused by pets. Some apartments even have restrictions on the breed and size of dogs. These restrictions are certainly crucial to your NJ pet friendly apartment search.
Knowing about an apartment's pet policy before you viewing the property can save you time, money and aggravation.
  
Conveniently filter out all apartments that don't allow pets from the start, as this will be on your list of apartment needs as opposed to your apartment wants.
When you begin your apartment search for a pet friendly rental in New Jersey, it is essential to be prepared. Many apartment buildings do not allow pets so you will have to do a little more work than the average renter to find an apartment!
Some apartments are dog-friendly some are cat-friendly and some allow both. Some apartments have restrictions on certain breeds or the size of dogs. The market is a bit more competitive for pet-friendly apartments, so it is of the utmost importance to be prepared. In addition to getting organized in the way that our article Step by Step moving guide advises, there are other steps that you can take to make sure that you and your dog, cat or other animal friend will find an apartment.
Meeting NJ Landlords and Signing Leases
Put together a pet biography. You can include your pet's height, weight, breed, age, whether it is spayed or neutered, training background, veterinarian's name and number and other important information about your pet. Not only will this information be useful to your potential landlord, but it will show that you are a responsible and organized pet owner.
You should also include numbers of previous landlords, as well as references that will vouch for your pet's good behavior. Completing these simple tasks and presenting this information to landlords can be helpful in markets that are extremely competitive for pet-friendly housing.
Sometimes landlords will request a pet deposit or increase in rent per month as well as restrictions on breed, size and number of animals. Be sure to inquire if anything is unclear or you have any special circumstances.
Before you sign your lease make sure you inspect it carefully. Some apartments may even list your dog or cat as a tenant in your apartment. Understand and review the terms with your landlord so that any issues that pertain to your pet are clearly understood by both parties.
Pets and Renters Insurance in New Jersey
Along with having all the proper identification and vaccination documentation ready to present to your landlord, it is also a good idea to get NJ renters insurance if you plan on having a pet in your apartment. Pet owners face higher liability risks because of damages that may be incurred by dogs and cats. Renters Insurance will protect you if your dog causes an injury to another person. Your pet may be harmless and the friendliest of companions, but renters insurance can help you out in the unfortunate event of an incident.
