Eviction, tenant w/baby in NJ

Hello, Hypothetical question? I have an apartment that I am leasing. I am on a fence. Prospective tenant is a single female with a baby and also sharing apartment with a 17 old sister. I am find with the demographics. But I am wearing about eviction. I don't think she would default on rent because she hasn't in past. What are the procedures for eviction and about how does it take? Is it different with a baby? Can I sue to have it put on her credit for future so prevent it from happening to someone else? Thanks for the insight in advance. Monica

Some states have criteria for evicting in the winter months. I am not sure if New Jersey is one of them. Other than unless it is a senior citizen demographics have little play in eviction. Once an eviction takes place, a judgement is awarded. There are procedures in some localites to have the judgement show up on a credit report. It is the judgement that becomes a red flag to future landlords.
