Q: I have a question on buying a property with rented mobile home lots.
The lot is a .5 acre lot in Adelphi Ohio. There are two mobile homes on the lot they rent the lots but own the homes. We want to buy our own mobile home to move to the lot. Can we have the current tenants move if given a reasonable time to vacate? Would we be legally responsible for any cost in their move?
A:
You are on notice of a rental agreement so you are bound by the terms. Once you know the terms and conditions as well as the length of the agreement (term) you can cancel the contract or refuse to renew.
There are very specific laws regarding mobile home parks and the eviction process. It is more than just an eviction and the length of the agreement could easily be a number of years
