A:
When you own a mobile home but rent the lot it sits on, the park's management typically has some rules that govern what you can and cannot do, including selling your home. However, they usually cannot stop you from selling your trailer altogether. What they can do is set requirements that need to be met, such as ensuring the buyer meets certain criteria or follows specific park rules.
It's important to review your lease agreement or any community rules provided by the park. These documents may outline what steps you need to take to sell your trailer. For instance, the park may require you to give them notice of the sale or approve the new buyer before they move in. They might also have rules about the condition of the trailer before it’s sold.
If you feel the park is unfairly blocking the sale of your trailer, you might consider reaching out to them directly to understand their concerns. If needed, you can explore your rights under local or state laws, as regulations can vary by location. It's important to know your rights to ensure the sale goes smoothly.
