PA HB734

Amends the Landlord and Tenant Act of 1951 to require landlords to provide tenants a habitable dwelling

Creates tenant relocation protections when rental housing is condemned or deemed uninhabitable through no fault of the tenant, with "temporary displacement" defined as less than 60 days and "permanent displacement" as 60 days or more

Requires landlords to comply within 60 hours of condemnation posting for temporary displacements, including paying for relocation costs or offering comparable alternative housing; original lease terms remain in effect if tenant returns

For permanent displacements (60+ days), landlords must pay within 72 hours: the security deposit with interest (minus any unpaid debts) and pro rata rent for the remainder of the month; permanently displaced tenants receive first right to reoccupy once housing becomes habitable

Exempts landlords who reside in Pennsylvania and operate fewer than 15 units (or employ on-site management/maintenance), and does not apply when condemnation results from fires, natural disasters, or tenant-caused damage; takes effect one year after enactment
