In rent-controlled areas like Los Angeles or San Francisco, landlords who terminate a lease for an owner move-in may be required to provide relocation assistance to the tenant. The specifics can vary:
• Relocation Assistance: This can include a monetary payment to help the tenant with moving expenses and finding a new place to live. The amount varies by city and sometimes by the tenant’s situation (e.g., lower income, elderly, disabled tenants might receive higher amounts).
• Notice Requirements: The landlord must provide a specific notice period, typically 60 days, but it can be longer in some jurisdictions.
