Mobile Homes
A “mobilehome” is a structure designed for both human habitation and for being moved on a street or highway under permit pursuant to the Vehicle Code. Mobilehomes are generally governed by the Mobile Homes-Manufacture Housing Act, the Mobile Homes Parks Act, the Manufactured Housing Community Act, the California Factory-Built Housing Law, and the Mobilehome Residency Law.
When the owner of a mobilehome park owns the land and leases portions of the land to owners of mobilehomes, laws similar to the usual laws applicable between landlords and residential tenants apply. When the owner of a mobilehome has an ownership interest in the mobilehome park as part of a condominium, cooperative, or subdivision, different laws apply.
