Creates grants to help manufactured home residents buy their communities.
This bill would create a new grant program at the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). States, Indian tribes, and insular areas could get these grants. They would qualify if they pass laws that give residents of manufactured housing communities a chance to buy their communities when they go up for sale. This aims to help residents gain ownership of their homes and land.
Today, there is no federal grant program specifically designed to encourage states to pass laws that help residents buy their manufactured housing communities. If this bill passes, HUD would create a grant program within one year. States, Indian tribes, and insular areas could get money if they adopt laws that give residents a formal opportunity to purchase their communities, including a 60-day notice period and negotiation rights.
