What must be arranged when converting rental units to private ownership?

• A. Relocation of tenants must be arranged
• B. Tenants must relocate at owner's expense
• C. No relocation required
• D. Tax reassessment required

Answer: (A)

When rental units are converted to private ownership, the tenancy cannot simply continue unchanged; the landlord must arrange relocation for the tenants. This ensures tenants have a place to move to and are not left without housing as the property changes use. The key point is that relocation is required as part of the conversion process, not just a suggestion or optional if the owner chooses. While the landlord may provide or offer relocation assistance, the essential requirement is to organize the tenants’ relocation. The idea of tax reassessment is not connected to the conversion process, and insisting that relocation must happen at the owner’s expense or that no relocation is needed do not fit the regulatory or practical needs of the conversion.
