Relocation Assistance & Real Property

Expert Uniform Act compliance for federally regulated projects — covering residential and business displacement planning, relocation advisory services, and real property acquisition for public agency and utility clients.

About This Service

When a federally funded project requires the displacement of a residential occupant, a business, or a farm operation, the Uniform Relocation Assistance and Real Property Acquisitions Policies Act applies — and compliance is not optional. Western States Land Services provides comprehensive relocation assistance that meets or exceeds Uniform Act requirements. We ensure displaced persons receive accurate advisory information, fair compensation, and the support they need to reestablish — without disruption to project timelines.

Displacement Handled Right. Every Time

Our relocation agents are experienced in all displacement categories under the Uniform Act: residential tenants and owner-occupants, business and nonprofit organizations, farm operators, and personal property-only displacements. We conduct advance displacement planning before construction schedules are set, provide all required advisory notices and documentation, calculate and process moving expense payments and replacement housing payments, and maintain audit-ready records throughout. Proper relocation assistance protects federally funded projects from legal challenge and keeps timelines on track.

Our agents handle every phase of the acquisition process. We evaluate routes for feasibility, research parcel ownership and encumbrances, prepare offers based on certified appraisals, negotiate directly with landowners, and prepare all legal instruments required for recording. Every step is documented for regulatory compliance. Clients work with one experienced team from start to finish — not a chain of disconnected specialists.
