Below is a very high level summary of towns with no rent control in NJ as well as towns with vacancy decontrol. Parts of this may be out of date, as ordinances change fairly often in my experience:

* No rent control: Montclair, Secaucus, Kearny, Garfield, Carlstadt, Wood-Ridge

* No rent control for investment properties upto 4-units inclusive: Jersey City, Bayonne, Bloomfield (upto 5 units)

* Vacancy decontrol (very high level, alphabetic): Bayonne, Belleville, Cliffside Park, Clifton, East Rutherford, Edgewater, Elmwood Park, Fairview, Hackensack, Hoboken, Leonia, Lyndhurst, North Arlington, Nutley, Passaic, Ridgefield Park

P.S. By any means, please call towns to confirm.
