North Attleborough, Mass., Code of Bylaws CH. 363 § 363-11 establishes that before a mobile home can be sold, any utility systems that do not conform to or have not been approved under current standards must be brought up to date. This applies specifically to water lines (copper pipe), sewer lines (SCH 40 PVC or cast iron), fuel systems, and electrical systems. Each upgraded system must also receive the appropriate permit from the relevant permitting authority before the sale can proceed.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Mobile home park operators and sellers subject to CH. 363 § 363-11 generally ensure that all utility systems — water, sewer, fuel, and electric — are inspected and assessed for code compliance well before any sale is initiated. Compliant operators typically arrange for licensed contractors to perform any required upgrades to copper pipe, SCH 40 PVC or cast iron sewer lines, and approved fuel and electrical systems, and then secure the necessary permits from the proper authority prior to closing. Maintaining records of permitted work and inspections helps demonstrate compliance with this provision.

Under CH. 363 § 363-11, prospective buyers of a mobile home have an interest in knowing that all utility systems meet current state code and have been properly permitted before the sale is finalized. If a buyer discovers after purchase that nonconforming water, sewer, fuel, or electrical systems were not upgraded or permitted as required, that noncompliance may be relevant to any dispute or complaint filed with local code enforcement or the town's permitting authority. Tenant-rights organizations and housing advocates in North Attleborough can help buyers understand what documentation to look for and what options may be available.
