(1) Decent, safe and sanitary (as defined in Section 370.04), and comparable to the acquired dwelling with respect to number of rooms, habitable living space and type and quality of construction, but not lesser in rooms or living space than necessary to accommodate the displaced person. To the extent practicable and consistent with this section, the replacement dwelling should be functionally equivalent and substantially the same as the acquired dwelling, but not excluding newly constructed housing.

The Act and these regulations do not require the replacement dwelling be generally as desirable as the acquired dwelling with respect to environmental characteristics. Though a displaced person does not have to accept a dwelling subject to unreasonable adverse environmental conditions, neither is the Department required to duplicate environmental characteristics, such as scenic vistas or proximity to the ocean, lakes, rivers, forests or other natural phenomena.

If the displaced person so requests, every reasonable effort shall be made to relocate such person within or near to his existing neighborhood. Whenever practicable, the replacement dwelling shall be reasonably close to relatives, friends, services or organizations with whom there is an existing dependency relationship.

A replacement dwelling is within the financial means of the displaced person if the monthly housing costs (including payments for mortgage, insurance and property taxes) or rental cost (including reasonably comparable utility and recurring expenses such as gardening, garaging, and similar necessary fees) minus any replacement housing payment available to the person under the provisions of these regulations does not exceed twenty-five percent (25%) of the person's average monthly income. A replacement dwelling is within the financial means of a displaced person also if the purchase price of the dwelling, including related increased interest costs and other reasonable expenses, does not exceed the amount of just compensation provided for the acquired dwelling and the replacement housing payments available to the person under these regulations.

(2) The occupant officially acknowledges the residential dwelling as his primary residence by voter registration, address on tax returns, home owners exemption, mailing address, proximity to occupant's work, schools, etc.

(1) Real property means the close of escrow by which the title to replacement property was conveyed to the claimant of a relocation payment; or if no escrow was used, “purchase” means the delivery to such claimant of the deed to the replacement property or the delivery of a completely executed installment contract for purchase. (2) Mobile homes means the registration of the vehicle with the California Department of Motor Vehicles in the name of the claimant.
