(3) The Department shall provide within five (5) calendar days of receipt of notification of a facility owner(s) or landlord's agent(s)' intent to sell or receipt of an offer to purchase: (a) Notification via first class mail to the facility owner(s) or landlord's agent(s) at an address or email address provided to the Department confirming receipt of their notice to sell; and (b) Notification via first class mail of the facility status or listing for sale to the tenants’ committee if one exists at the time of the delivery of the notification from the facility owner(s) or landlord's agent(s); and (c) Publication of the facility status or listing for sale on the MMCRC website and information regarding resources to assist tenants in the purchase of the facility shall be kept current and accessible to the public by the Department on the MMCRC website and provided upon request via email or first-class mail. (4) Notices provided by the facility owner(s) or landlord's agent(s) are valid for one calendar year from the date that the facility owner(s) or landlord's agent(s) provided notice of intent to sell to tenants, tenant committees, and the Department. (a) If the facility is not sold within one calendar year, the facility owner(s) and landlord's agent(s) are required to provide tenants, tenant committees, and the Department with an updated notice that meets the requirements of this Division.

OAR 813 § 813-065-0103 establishes a structured notification process that must occur before a manufactured home park or marina community is sold. Facility owners or their agents must deliver written notice of their intent to sell to all tenants, any formally recognized tenant committee, and the state's Manufactured and Marina Communities Resource Center (MMCRC) within specific timeframes — at least 15 days before public marketing or 10 days after receiving a purchase offer, whichever comes first. The notice must include detailed property and pricing information, and the MMCRC must in turn confirm receipt and publish the listing publicly within five days. If the facility remains unsold after one year, the notification process must be repeated with a fresh, updated notice.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under OAR 813 § 813-065-0103, compliant facility owners and their agents deliver written sale notices to all tenants, any qualifying tenant committee, and the Department's MMCRC before publicly marketing the property or within 10 days of receiving a purchase offer. Those notices include the asking or offer price, publicly available property details such as zoning and tax information, and contact information for any brokers or attorneys involved in the sale. Operators also track the one-year validity window on each notice and issue updated notifications to all tenants — including any new tenants who missed the original notice — if the facility has not sold within that period.

OAR 813 § 813-065-0103 gives residents of manufactured home parks and marina communities the right to receive written notice before their facility is publicly listed for sale or shortly after the owner receives a purchase offer. The notice must include the asking or offer price and key property details, and the state's MMCRC is required to publish the listing and maintain resources to help tenants explore purchasing the facility. Tenants who believe they did not receive proper notice, or whose tenant committee was not notified as required, may contact the Department's MMCRC directly or consult a tenant-rights organization to understand what options may be available under this rule.
