HB 1325 Virginia House of Delegates · 2026 Regular Session

Manufactured Home Lot Rental Act; landlord obligations.

Summary

Manufactured Home Lot Rental Act; landlord obligations. Requires a landlord to provide a copy of any written rental agreement and the statement of tenant rights and responsibilities within 10 business days of the effective date of the written rental agreement; current law requires a landlord to provide such copies within one month of such effective date. The bill outlines required notice language regarding flood insurance to be included by the landlord in the rental agreement and provides that failures of the landlord to provide notice shall not affect the validity of the rental agreement.

MINOR

The bill was formally enrolled, meaning it has been approved by the Governor and is now law. The substantive text of the Manufactured Home Lot Rental Act remains identical to the introduced version, with no changes to landlord obligations, tenant rights, or effective dates.

Scope change

The bill's scope and applicability remain unchanged, as the enrolled version contains the exact same legal text as the introduced version.

TECHNICAL

Removed introductory metadata such as 'Introduced', bill number, and committee referral information.

Added official enrolled formatting, including page numbers, 'Virginia Acts of Assembly' headers, and the 'Approved' stamp.

Adjusted the bill title in the enrolled version to list only the amended sections (55.1-1301 and 55.1-1303) instead of all three sections referenced in the introduction, though the operative text remains the same.
