N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 205-A: § 205-A:3
A tenancy in a manufactured housing park may be terminated by a manufactured housing park owner or operator upon giving notice in writing to the tenant in the manner prescribed by RSA 540:5 and by first class mail, to remove from the premises within a period of not less than:
I. 30 days, for an action based on RSA 205-A:4, I.

III. 18 months, for an action based on RSA 205-A:4, VI.

Plain English

Under N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 205-A:3, a manufactured housing park owner or operator who wishes to end a tenancy must provide written notice—delivered both in the manner specified by RSA 540:5 and by first-class mail—giving the tenant a minimum amount of time to vacate. The required notice period varies depending on the legal basis for termination: at least 30 days for certain grounds, at least 60 days for others, and at least 18 months when the termination is based on RSA 205-A:4, VI. The provision sets minimum timeframes only; it does not address what happens if proper notice is not given.

For Property Managers

Park owners and operators subject to § 205-A:3 generally ensure that any termination notice is delivered both in compliance with RSA 540:5 and by first-class mail, and that the notice period matches the specific statutory ground being invoked under RSA 205-A:4. Operators typically track which subsection of RSA 205-A:4 applies to a given situation, since the required lead time ranges from 30 days to 18 months depending on that classification. Maintaining clear documentation of the delivery method and the date notice was sent is a standard practice for demonstrating compliance with § 205-A:3.

For Tenants

Under § 205-A:3, tenants in New Hampshire manufactured housing parks are entitled to a minimum written notice period before they can be required to vacate—ranging from 30 days up to 18 months depending on the reason the park owner is seeking termination. If a tenant believes the notice was not delivered in the required manner or that the notice period was shorter than what § 205-A:3 mandates, that procedural deficiency may be relevant in any subsequent eviction proceeding. Tenants facing a termination notice may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid service to understand how the notice requirements apply to their circumstances.
