Manufactured Housing Tenant’s Bill of Rights Act of 2025

This bill requires lenders in federally backed manufactured home community loan programs to include specific tenant protections in lease agreements. It mandates 1-year lease terms with renewal options, 60-day written notice for rent increases (with extended notice for larger hikes), grace periods for payments, and rights for homeowners to sell their homes in place without relocation. Violations trigger penalties like refunding rent with interest or paying damages to affected tenants, while a new Commission will propose stronger future protections. The law applies specifically to communities receiving federal loans under programs like HUD’s manufactured home park financing.
