In Pasadena, property owners are required to provide relocation assistance to tenants displaced due to no-fault evictions or rent increases that result in tenants moving out of their units. Relocation assistance can come in various forms, including financial compensation, comparable accommodations, or support from a relocation specialist in finding new housing—all provided by the landlord.

Who Qualifies for Relocation Assistance?

Tenants displaced due to:

  • †An eviction for necessary and substantial repairs
  • An eviction for owner or qualified relative move-in
  • An eviction to withdraw the unit from the rental market (Ellis Act)
  • An eviction based on a government order (e.g., demolition or red-tagging)
  • Inability to pay a rent increase exceeding 5% plus the most recently announced Annual General Adjustment (AGA) within any twelve-month period
