- one-year renewable lease terms, unless there is good cause for nonrenewal;
- at least a 60-day advance notice of any increase in rent, or of a sale or closure of the community;
- a five-day grace period for rent payments; and
- a right for a tenant to sell a manufactured home within a reasonable time period after eviction.
