October 19, 2012 – (RealEstateRama) — This is a MAJOR VICTORY for manufactured home community residents. Residents in manufactured housing communities (mobile home parks) are in a unique situation in terms of their housing tenure. While most own their homes, they rent the land on which the home is situated. They are homeowners, but without the stability of homeownership, being subject to rent increases, changes in community rules, and in some instances being forced to relocate their homes when the community closes.
