Summary

Existing law authorizes the management of a mobilehome park to require prior approval of a purchaser of a mobilehome that will remain in the park. Existing law also prohibits management from withholding approval if the purchaser has the ability to pay the rent and charges of the park, except as specified. Existing law authorizes management to require the purchaser to document the amount and source of his or her gross monthly income or other means of support but prohibits management from requiring personal income tax returns as evidence. Existing law requires management, upon request of any prospective homeowner who proposes to purchase a mobilehome that will remain in the park, to inform that person of the information that management will require to determine if the person will be acceptable as a homeowner in the park. Existing law permits the management or owner to be held liable for all damages if the approval of a prospective homeowner is withheld for any unauthorized reason. This bill would require the purchaser to be presumed to have the financial ability to pay the rent and charges of the park if he or she has been approved for a loan to purchase the mobilehome that the purchaser intends to occupy, or if the purchaser has not been approved for a loan, based upon consideration of all information provided by the purchaser regarding his or her assets and ability to generate income demonstrating sufficient monthly income that meets or exceeds the income standard disclosed by management. The bill would prohibit that income standard from exceeding a multiplier of 3 times the purchaser's income over the projected housing-related expenses to be paid by the purchaser in connection with the proposed mobilehome tenancy. The bill would also prohibit management from withholding approval solely because the purchaser owns another mobilehome or real property residence and from requiring that the mobilehome being purchased be the sole residence of the purchaser. The bill would require management, upon request, to provide a prospective purchaser with a list of information that management will require in order to determine if the person will be acceptable as a homeowner in the park and a copy of the current written procedures, standards, or requirements that will be used by management to evaluate the purchaser's application. The bill would require the management, if a prospective homeowner is denied approval and if requested, to meet with the purchaser or homeowner at which time the management would be required to reconsider the denial, including any additional information relevant to the application provided by the prospective homeowner.
