Interesting slightly informative discussion of TOPA rights on PoP
This only applies to the District of Columbia.
There is a sorta-kinda interesting comment discussion on a popular local blog called Prince of Petworth (PoP) regarding TOPA "From the Forum – Assigning TOPA Rights". I write sorta-kinda because sometimes (a lot of times) the commenters on PoP can be uninformed and unhelpful. At about 90 comments one can get some insight from various opinions on this topic.

Our landlord is selling our 8 bedroom, three-unit building. It’s a row house and we are the only occupied unit. It’s in a very desirable area. We are interested in assigning our TOPA rights and are trying to see if there are any developers or individuals out there who would be interested. If you are interested, please leave your email in a response and I can email you more details. Thanks!
