HR 4969 United States House · 119th Congress

Keep Mobile Homes Affordable Act

This bill requires the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) to investigate whether prices for rental spaces (pad sites) in mobile home communities are being manipulated or artificially raised through practices like price gouging. HUD must also monitor if any single buyer (including large investors) purchases over 2,500 mobile homes or pad sites in one area, and investigate potential issues like unjustified rent hikes or utility failures. The investigation findings will lead to reports for Congress and public websites, specifically analyzing impacts on seniors and underserved communities. The bill directly affects residents of manufactured home communities, particularly those in areas with high institutional investment, by mandating federal oversight of pricing practices.
