(b) All real estate brokers and all persons who engage in the business of selling or renting their own or others' real property shall display the official sales and rentals housing poster of the Division in places easily visible to all prospective tenants and purchasers.

1. For the purpose of this subsection, a person is not engaged in the business of selling real property solely because he or she sells, or attempts to negotiate the sale of, his or her own residence.

(c) All persons who are engaged in the management of residential real property, including, but not limited to, landlords, property management companies, and cooperative and condominium associations, shall display the official property management housing poster of the Division in places easily visible to all residents, whether tenants or owners, and all prospective tenants and purchasers.

(d) Each covered entity subject to the requirements at (c) above shall provide to the residents of each property managed by the covered entity, a written copy of the official property management housing poster:

1. Annually, on or before December 31 of each year; and

2. Upon the first request of a resident.

(e) In the event that a covered entity subject to the requirements at (c) above has an internet site or intranet site for use by residents of properties managed by the covered entities to which all residents have access and the entity customarily posts notices to affected individuals electronically on the site, posting of the official property management poster on the employer's internet site or intranet site shall satisfy the posting requirement set forth at (d) above.

(f) The official housing posters of the Division are available for downloading and printing on the Division's website, www.njcivilrights.gov, or at any of the Division's offices.
