RE: California / Mobilehome Residency Law (MRL) / GSMOL
Thu, Jan 30, 2025 – The MHPHOA HTML and the GSMOL PDF versions of the 2025 California Mobilehome Residency Law have been updated to reflect all changes for the 2025 year.
Division 2, Part 2, Chap. 2.5 of the Civil Code. The Mobilehome Residency Law (MRL) is the “landlord-tenant law” for mobilehome parks, which, like landlord-tenant law and other Civil Code provisions, are enforced in a court of law. The Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) does not have authority to enforce violations of the MRL.

File Type: PDF, Pages: 182, Size: 2.5 MB
From the 2025 MRL Introduction:
Note: Mobilehome Residency Law Protection Program (MRLPP). Beginning July 1, 2021, any mobilehome or manufactured homeowner living in a mobilehome park under a rental agreement may submit a complaint for an alleged violation of the Mobilehome Residency Law. Any mobilehome or manufactured homeowner residing in a permitted mobilehome park is eligible to submit a complaint. Complaints must be submitted to HCD. HCD provides assistance to help resolve and coordinate resolution of the most severe alleged violations of the Mobilehome Residency Law. For questions regarding the MRLPP please call 1-800-952-8356, email MRLComplaint@HCD.CA.gov or visit https://www.HCD.CA.gov/.
For the 2025 edition, There are five (5) Assembly Bills (AB) and two (2) Senate Bills (SB) relating to mobilehomes that have been signed into law by the Governor to become effective Wednesday, January 1, 2025.
Wed, Jan 29, 2025 – GSMOL In the past, the Senate Select Committee for Manufactured Homes has produced an MRL Handbook, which included the current Mobilehome Residency Law, other state laws applying to MH parks, the RV Park laws, the Frequently Asked Questions that have been submitted to their office, and a Community Resources directory by counties. This year, GSMOL has its own version of this Handbook, which features links to each reference, whether it be within the MRL or in another source. This has been produced for us by the Administrator of MHPHOA.com, a website with a lot of good resources. Unfortunately GSMOL cannot afford to make hard copies of this booklet as the Select Committee did, but we hope that this will be a useful online reference for our members and others.
