Paying for Tenant Food During Displacement

Ben Capone
Posted

Hi All,

Our complex in San Diego had some concrete work done that caused us to have to relocate tenants for 2-3 days. We gave them the option to either provide them with the nightly rate per diem of the rental for them to do as they please or we would book accommodation for them. They elected for the latter. They have since come back and asked for reimbursement of their meals during those days. All the research I have done so far looks to state that landlord is only on the hook for providing habitable housing during the period of displacement. Any one have any previous experience with this? Any insight is appreciated.
