SB 488 Michigan Senate · 2023-2024 Regular Session

Mobile homes: other; procedure for declaring a mobile home abandoned; provide for. Amends 1987 PA 96 (MCL 125.2301 - 125.2350) by adding sec. 30j. TIE BAR WITH: SB 0486'23, SB 0490'23, SB 0487'23, SB 0489'23

This bill establishes a new procedure for mobile home park owners to declare a resident's mobile home abandoned under specific conditions. The process requires a prior court order restoring possession to the park owner, followed by a waiting period of at least 90 days of non-occupancy or 10 days of unpaid rent, along with delinquent debts. Before declaring abandonment, the park owner must calculate the home's fair market value, send detailed notices to the owner and lienholders, and file a notice with the secretary of state. If the home's value exceeds the owed rent and fees, the park owner must offer the excess amount to the owner via check. The bill also outlines the owner's right to remove the home within a set timeframe and the park owner's ability to apply for title if the home remains unremoved after a final notice period.
