Pennsylvania Bills Aim to Cap Lot Rent Increases in Manufactured Home Communities
Pennsylvania lawmakers are pushing bills to curb lot rent increases in manufactured home communities, but the main House measure has yet to clear the Senate.
Key facts
- House Bill 1250 passed the House with bipartisan support last year and awaits action in the Senate Urban Affairs and Housing Committee.
- Senate Bills 745 and 746 would tie increases to the Consumer Price Index, and both have stalled in Harrisburg.
- Proponents say the state's 56,000 homes are an accessible path to homeownership.
- Sen. Steve Santarsiero's Senate Bill 1446 would create an ombudsman office and a Manufactured Home Hearing Board.
- The Pennsylvania Manufactured Housing Association opposes the rent bills.
