In fact, I am only aware of one such sale in the past 20 years in our area, and it was a special case. It seems reasonable to think that you should see these for sale – for example, what if someone dies and their mobile home is considered unsafe, and it's removed - shouldn't the family be able to sell the RIGHT to place a home on that pad? I often get asked: Are there any empty lots for sale in manufactured home parks? Like a vacant pad for sale, upon which I can place a new home? Furthermore, there is a process for recovering more compensation if the tenant is unable to find a new place for their home. Each tenant is entitled to $20,000 for example, as well as twelve months' notice. The Province has some regulations designed to make this less likely, and to compensate you for the inconvenience (if the eviction is due to redevelopment).

Many people wonder what sort of protection they have against eviction – what happens if the park owner chooses to sell the land for re-development? Your Rights as a Tenant in an MHPĪlthough you own the HOME, you are RENTING the space (pad) in the park. In British Columbia, the Manufactured Home Tax Act dictates that you pay tax on the home itself as personal property, but you aren't taxed for the land if your home is in a manufactured home park where you pay rent. Do you pay property tax when you own a mobile home?Ī. It's one reason why mobile homes are geared toward retired people – they have sold their old family home and have enough money to buy a mobile home, mortgage-free, with some funds left over for other living expenses. Some parks are connected to municipal water/sewer services, while others have big communal wells or septic systems.įinancing a mobile/manufactured home can be a bit trickier than a regular home because these homes depreciate faster, and because your interest in the land is not as “solid” for the banks in terms of collateral. Most parks' fees include garbage/recycling some parks also pay for sewer and water, while others have metered connections. You don't want to rock the boat when your right to the land is subject to the continued approval of the park management! Indeed, most people who want to make noise will avoid the MHPs and live elsewhere. There are Park rules against most forms of disturbance, so you won't encounter a lot of rowdiness in most cases. They usually appear to be similar to any sectioned-off suburban development, with people tending to their yards or staying invisible inside. I can't describe what life is like, in the parks. The land is owned by a private company or individual who rents it to you, usually for about $525/mo in Nanaimo. While some mobile homes are on their own private lots, for the ones in "Parks" you own the building but not the land. Looking for a mobile home in a park where you OWN your lot?
