Mobilehome Rent Control Ordinance

The Mobilehome Rent Control Ordinance is a local regulation that limits how much mobilehome park owners can increase rent charges. Its purpose is to protect residents from sudden or excessive rent hikes, ensuring affordability and stability for mobile homeowners. Typically, the ordinance sets a maximum percentage increase annually or ties rent increases to inflation or other economic indicators. It also may establish procedures for landlords and tenants to communicate or dispute increases. Overall, it aims to balance the rights of tenants to affordable living with the property owners’ ability to maintain their investments.
