Every rental dwelling license shall be subject to the following regulations:
(a) Each rental dwelling license shall be secured by January 1, shall expire on the following December 31, shall be effective for not more than twelve months irrespective of the date of its issuance, and shall not be transferable.
(b) Whenever the interest of the licensee in the building, for the occupancy of which the license was issued, shall cease, or such building shall have been brought within one of the other grades defined by law or ordinance by reason of a change of use, such license shall immediately become void. When the property for which a rental dwelling license is required is sold, the new owner, if required pursuant to Section 1360.15, shall secure such license within fifteen (15) days after transfer of title. However, upon the death of the licensee, the license shall nevertheless be valid for thirty (30) days from the date of the death in favor of the legal representatives of the licensee, or of the person or persons to whom the interest of the licensee passes by operation of law.
