Chapter 118B - Landlord and Tenant: Manufactured Home Parks
NRS 118B.180 - Obligations of landlord for conversion of park into lots: Notices; offers to sell lots; financial liability; resident impact statement.


1. A landlord may convert an existing manufactured home park into individual manufactured home lots for sale to manufactured home owners if the change is approved by the appropriate local zoning board, planning commission or governing body. In addition to any other reasons, a landlord may apply for such approval if the landlord is forced to close the manufactured home park because of a valid order of a state or local governmental agency or court requiring the closure of the manufactured home park for health or safety reasons.
2. The landlord may undertake a conversion pursuant to this section only if:
(a) The landlord gives notice in writing to the Division and each tenant within 5 days after the landlord files his or her application for the change in land use with the local zoning board, planning commission or governing body;
(b) The landlord offers, in writing, to sell the lot to the tenant at the same price the lot will be offered to the public and holds that offer open for at least 90 days or until the landlord receives a written rejection of the offer from the tenant, whichever occurs earlier;
(c) The landlord does not sell the lot to a person other than the tenant for 90 days after the termination of the offer required pursuant to paragraph (b) at a price or on terms that are more favorable than the price or terms offered to the tenant;
(d) If a tenant does not exercise his or her option to purchase the lot pursuant to paragraph (b), the landlord pays:
(1) The cost of moving the tenant’s manufactured home and its appurtenances to a comparable location in this State or another state within 150 miles from the manufactured home park; or
(2) If the new location is more than 150 miles from the manufactured home park, the cost of moving the manufactured home for the first 150 miles,
including fees for inspection, any deposits for connecting utilities and the cost of taking down, moving, setting up and leveling his or her manufactured home and its appurtenances in the new lot or park;
(e) After the landlord is granted final approval of the change by the appropriate local zoning board, planning commission or governing body, notice in writing is served on each tenant in the manner provided in NRS 40.280, giving the tenant at least 180 days after the date of the notice before the tenant is required to move his or her manufactured home from the lot; and
(f) The landlord complies with the provisions of NRS 118B.184 concerning the submission of a resident impact statement.
3. At the time of providing notice of the conversion of the park pursuant to this section, a landlord shall provide to each tenant:
(a) The address and telephone number of the Division;
(b) Any list published by the Division setting forth the names of licensed transporters of manufactured homes approved by the Division; and
(c) Any list published by the Division setting forth the names of mobile home parks within 150 miles that have reported having vacant spaces.
4. If the landlord is unable to move a shed, due to its physical condition, that belongs to a tenant who has elected to have the landlord move his or her manufactured home, the landlord shall pay the tenant $250 as reimbursement for the shed. Each tenant may receive only one payment of $250 even if more than one shed is owned by the tenant.
5. If a tenant chooses not to move the manufactured home, the manufactured home cannot be moved without being structurally damaged or there is no manufactured home park within 150 miles that is willing to accept the manufactured home, the landlord:
(a) May remove and dispose of the manufactured home; and
(b) Shall pay to the tenant the fair market value of the manufactured home.
6. Notice sent pursuant to paragraph (a) of subsection 2 or an offer to sell a manufactured home lot to a tenant required pursuant to paragraph (b) of subsection 2 does not constitute notice of termination of the tenancy.
7. Upon the sale of a manufactured home lot and a manufactured home which is situated on that lot, the landlord shall indicate what portion of the purchase price is for the manufactured home lot and what portion is for the manufactured home.
8. For the purposes of this section, the fair market value of a manufactured home must be determined as follows:
(a) A dealer licensed pursuant to chapter 489 of NRS who is a certified appraiser and who is selected jointly by the landlord or his or her agent and the tenant shall make the determination.
(b) If there are insufficient dealers licensed pursuant to chapter 489 of NRS who are certified appraisers available for the purposes of paragraph (a), a person who possesses the qualifications pursuant to the Appraiser Qualifications for Manufactured Homes Classified as Personal Property as set forth in section 8-3 of Valuation Analysis for Single Family One- to Four-Unit Dwellings, HUD Directive Number 4150.2 CHG-1, of the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development, and who is selected jointly by the landlord or his or her agent and the tenant shall make the determination.
(c) If there are insufficient persons available for the purposes of paragraphs (a) and (b) or if the landlord or his or her agent and the tenant cannot agree pursuant to paragraphs (a) and (b), the landlord or his or her agent or the tenant may request the Administrator to, and the Administrator shall, appoint a dealer licensed pursuant to chapter 489 of NRS or a certified appraiser who shall make the determination.
9. The landlord shall pay the costs associated with determining the fair market value of a manufactured home and the cost of removing and disposing of a manufactured home pursuant to subsection 5.
10. The provisions of this section do not apply to a corporate cooperative park.
