People in manufactured home communities would get stronger lease protections if owners want federal loans.
This bill would require owners of manufactured home communities to include specific consumer protections in all their lease agreements if they want to get federal financing. These protections cover things like lease terms, rent increases, and the right to sell a home. Owners who don't follow these rules would face penalties, including being blocked from future federal funding.
Today, owners of manufactured home communities can get federal loans without being required to offer specific minimum consumer protections in their lease agreements. If this bill passes, owners would need to include protections like 1-year renewable leases, 60-day rent increase notices, and rights to sell homes in place to qualify for federal funding. They would also face penalties, including being blocked from future federal financing for at least 2 years, for not following these rules.
