For Property Managers

OAR 813 § 813-009-0010 is primarily directed at resident groups seeking to purchase a manufactured dwelling park rather than at park owners or managers. Property owners and managers of manufactured dwelling parks should be aware that this provision creates a formal pathway through which resident associations or affiliated nonprofits may seek state loan funding to facilitate a park purchase. Operators who receive notice of such an application may wish to consult with legal counsel familiar with Oregon manufactured dwelling park law to understand how the process could affect ownership and management obligations.

General guidance for property managers — not legal advice for your specific situation. Consult an attorney for advice on your case.

For Tenants

Under OAR 813 § 813-009-0010, residents of a manufactured dwelling park may have access to state loan funds through the Oregon Housing and Community Services Department if they organize as a Qualified Facility Purchase Association, a tenants' association, or work with a supported nonprofit to apply for purchase assistance. To qualify, a Qualified Facility Purchase Association must demonstrate that it represents at least fifty percent of all facility residents, and the application must include organizational records, officer information, and a detailed financial projection. Residents interested in exploring this option can contact the Department directly, reach out to a tenant-rights organization familiar with Oregon manufactured housing law, or consult an attorney to understand the eligibility and application requirements under this provision.
