It was my tenant who made another set of keys for her "fiance"...

That's true...the 14 + days was in the last lease. I suggested that she include him on the new lease he opted not to.

Thanks again everyone..the feedback was and is much appreciated. Now I have somewhat of clearer understanding of it all.

She was the only one issued a set of keys. She took it upon herself to make copies and give them to her "fiance". She never metioned anything to me. I never said anything....so when it was time for the lease renewal. That was a topic that was brought up. I told her she could have least contacted me and let me know what she was doing. Its the principle about the matter. 

That's why being a landlord that lives onsight. You have to take on all issues that may arise.

For one thing she pays her rent on TIME!

I had to make the topic short..In my lease the 14 day rule is in effect at the time.

She gave her "fiance" a set of keys to the apt . Upon renewing the lease it was changed to a 5 day rule. I asked the question on here to get some feedback ...because there is really no law about giving a key to a non-tenant based on the information I checked. Unless i stated that in the lease.

Thanks for all the feedback.

One other note for some of the comedians in here thanks for the laughs as well.

Thanks for the feedback. I didn't include that in the lease.

I would like to know the rules in NJ regarding giving out a set of extra keys to a person that is not on the lease.
