1. The landlord may require approval of a prospective buyer and tenant before the sale of a tenant’s manufactured home or recreational vehicle, if the manufactured home or vehicle will remain in the park. The landlord shall consider the record, if any, of the prospective buyer and tenant concerning the payment of rent. The landlord shall not unreasonably withhold his or her consent.
2. If a tenant sells his or her manufactured home or recreational vehicle, the landlord may require that the manufactured home or recreational vehicle be removed from the park if it is deemed by the park’s written rules or regulations in the possession of the tenants to be in a run-down condition or in disrepair or does not meet the safety standards set forth in NRS 461A.120. If the manufactured home must be inspected to determine compliance with the standards, the person requesting the inspection shall pay for it.
3. If the landlord requires the approval of a prospective buyer and tenant, the landlord shall:
(a) Post and maintain a sign which is clearly readable at the entrance to the park which advises the reader that before a manufactured home in the park is sold, the prospective buyer must be approved by the landlord.
(b) Approve or deny a completed application from a prospective buyer and tenant within 10 business days after the date of the submission of the application.
(c) Inform the prospective buyer and tenant upon the submission of the completed application of the duty of the landlord to approve or deny the completed application within 10 business days after the date of submission of the completed application.
4. If the landlord requires the approval of a prospective buyer and tenant of a manufactured home or recreational vehicle and the manufactured home or recreational vehicle is sold without the approval of the landlord, the landlord may:
(a) After providing at least 5 days’ written notice to the buyer and tenant, bring an action for an unlawful detainer in the manner prescribed in chapter 40 of NRS; or
(b) Require the buyer and tenant to sign a rental agreement. If the buyer and tenant refuse to sign the rental agreement within 5 days after such a request, the landlord may, after providing at least 5 days’ written notice to the buyer and tenant, bring an action for an unlawful detainer in the manner provided in chapter 40 of NRS.
5. For the purposes of NRS 40.251, a person who:
(a) Purchases a manufactured home or recreational vehicle from a tenant of a manufactured home park which will remain in the park;
(b) Was required to be approved by the landlord of the manufactured home park before the sale of the manufactured home or recreational vehicle; and
