In Los Angeles, you get a lot more than in most other cities. In addition to the notice of the condo conversion public hearing and a chance to oppose it, required by State Law, you get: (1) relocation assistance of $3300 or $8000 (described above), (2) a list of available vacancies, and (3) special help with transportation for those with cars or needing medical transportation. Instead of those 3 items, the landlord can move you to a comparable unit in another building at his own expense [up to $8,000 worth, including the movers, transportation, etc.]. This all starts about 8 months [240 days] before the actual conversion. You have to be given the list of available vacancies and transportation assistance first, which can last for the whole time. You don't have to pick the ones they try to encourage you to choose. It is your choice, although you can't be unreasonable about it.
