Generally speaking, this relocation compensation is to be paid within 10 days of the date the Notice of Violation was posted or mailed and is to be in an amount “equal to two months of the established fair market rent” for the area as set forth by HUD. Landlords are generally not responsible when the serious code violations have been caused by the tenant or guests."
