Under N.J.S.A. 46:8C-9, a mobile home park owner or operator is permitted to sell the first mobile home placed on each leasable site within the park. This provision establishes a one-time right of sale tied to the initial occupancy of each individual site. Once that first sale has occurred on a given site, the specific authorization granted by this section has been exercised for that location.

For Property Managers

Section 46:8C-9 gives park owners and operators the explicit authority to sell the first mobile home placed on each site they lease within the park. Operators who take advantage of this provision typically document the transaction clearly, noting that it represents the initial sale for that particular site. Maintaining clear records of which sites have had their first mobile home sold under this provision helps demonstrate compliance with the scope of the authorization.

For Tenants

Under N.J.S.A. 46:8C-9, if you are purchasing a mobile home that is being sold as the first unit on a given park site, the park owner or operator is legally authorized to conduct that sale. Understanding whether a sale falls within this provision's scope — meaning it is genuinely the first mobile home on that site — may be relevant to your situation. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with New Jersey mobile home park law can help explain how this provision interacts with other protections that may apply to your lease or purchase.
