Concerning the notice of sale or lease of manufactured/mobile home communities.

HB 1358 requires mobile home community owners in Washington to provide written notice of a potential sale or lease to all tenants, tenant organizations, and specific government agencies (like the Department of Commerce and local housing authorities) before marketing the community for sale. The notice must include details about the sale, a 70-day window for tenants to form a qualified purchasing group, and information on how to access community financial data. This bill amends existing laws to ensure tenants have a formal opportunity to compete for ownership before the property is sold to outside buyers. It applies directly to mobile home community owners and tenants, with specific requirements for notice delivery, timelines, and access to financial information during negotiations.
