Iowa HF482 regulates the termination of rental agreements in mobile home parks and manufactured home communities by landlords.

Iowa HF482 amends the rental agreement terms for tenants in mobile home parks and manufactured home communities. It mandates that rental agreements must be for a term of one year unless otherwise specified.

Importantly, landlords are prohibited from canceling a rental agreement unless the tenant has materially violated the agreement and cannot do so solely to make the tenant’s mobile home space available for another mobile home.
