Landlord and Tenant - Mobile Home Parks

questions & answers

Question: Our Mobile Home Management has requested all residents submit copies of the title to their mobiles and home owners insurance. Is this something we must comply with, even though we are not in the process of selling our homes?

Answer: The Arizona Mobile Home Parks Residential Landlord and Tenant Act, which governs the relationship between mobile home park landlords and mobile home park lot space tenants, does not provide a detailed answer to the question of what specific kinds of information a landlord may require from a tenant. However, many mobile home park landlords do ask their tenants to provide proof of title and insurance during the pre-rental agreement approval process. If you would like legal advice regarding whether existing tenants should be required to provide such information, there are links to free and low-cost legal services on this website (at http://www.azlawhelp.org/accessToJustice).
