SUMMARY ANALYSIS
Chapter 723, F.S., the “Florida Mobile Home Act,” addresses the unique relationship between a mobile home
owner and a mobile home park owner, and applies to residential tenancies where a mobile home is placed
upon a lot that is rented or leased from a mobile home park that has 10 or more lots offered for rent or lease.
The Division of Condominiums, Timeshares, and Mobile Homes (CTMH) under the Department of Business
and Professional Regulation (DBPR) has the power and duty to enforce and ensure certain compliance with
the Florida Mobile Home Act, which includes running a mediation program and the Florida Mobile Home
Relocation Corporation (corporation).
The bill:
Provides that, after the last meeting to resolve a dispute regarding a rent increase, the mobile home
park owner and home owners may immediately enter into an agreement to initiate mediation and select
their own mediator.
Requires home owners to provide the following documents to the park owner upon filing a petition with
CTMH:
o The homeowners’ petition for mediation on a form adopted by CTMH rule;
o The written designation with lot identification for each signature;
o The notice or notices of lot rental increase, reduction in services or utilities, or change in rules
and regulations that is being challenged as unreasonable; and
o The records that verify the selection of the homeowners’ committee.
Requires CTMH to appoint a qualified mediator to conduct mediation proceedings, if the parties have
not selected their own mediator, and notify the parties within 20 days after receipt of a mediation
petition.
Provides that a civil action may not be filed until the dispute has been submitted to mediation.
Provides that a live-in health care aide must have ingress and egress to and from the mobile home
owner's site without additional rent, fee, or any charge whatsoever, except the cost of a background
check if one is required.
Provides that the live-in health care aide or the aide's assistant does not have any rights of tenancy in
the mobile home park.
Increases relocation payments to the mobile home owner from the corporation when the home owner
must move due to a change in use of the land.
The bill will likely increase expenditures by the CTMH. See Fiscal Analysis and Economic Impact Statement.

The provisions in Ch. 723, F.S., apply to residential
tenancies where a mobile home is placed upon a lot that is rented or leased from a mobile home park
that has 10 or more lots offered for rent or lease.
5
CTMH has the power and duty to enforce and ensure compliance with the Florida Mobile Home Act

Chapter 723.003, F.S., provides the following relevant definitions:
“Mobile home park” or “park” means a use of land in which lots or spaces are offered for rent or
lease for the placement of mobile homes and in which the primary use of the park is residential.
9
“Mobile home owner,” “mobile homeowner,” “home owner,” or “homeowner” means a person
who owns a mobile home and rents or leases a lot within a mobile home park for residential
use.
10
Mobile Home Park Rent Increases
The mobile home park owner may increase the rental amount upon the expiration of the assumed
rental agreement “in an amount deemed appropriate by the mobile home park owner.”
11
The park
owner must give affected mobile home owners and the board of directors of the homeowners’
association, if one has been formed, at least a 90-day notice of a lot rental increase.
12
Upon the sale of a mobile home on a rented lot, the amount of a lot rental increase is to be disclosed
and agreed to by the purchaser by executing a rental agreement that sets forth the new lot rental
amount.
13
A lot rental amount may not be increased during the term of a rental agreement. However, if
the rental agreement is for a term of more than 12 months, the lot rental amount may be increased
during the rental term but not more frequently than annually. Pass-through charges
14
may also be
increased during the term of the rental agreement.
15
Lot rental increases may not be arbitrary or discriminatory between similarly situated tenants in the
park, and the lot rental may not increase during the term of the rental agreement.
16
However, the
mobile home park owner may pass on, at any time during the term of the rental agreement, ad valorem
property taxes and utility charges, or increases of either, if the passing on of these costs was disclosed
prior to the tenancy.
17
A park owner must give written notice to each affected mobile home owner and the board of directors of
the homeowners’ association, if one has been formed, at least 90 days before any increase in the lot
rental amount or reduction in services or utilities provided by the park owner or change in rules and
regulations.
18
The notice must identify all other affected homeowners, which may be by lot number,
name, group, or phase. If the affected homeowners are not identified by name, the park owner must
make the names and addresses available upon request.
19
A committee of homeowners and the park owner must meet no later than 60 days before the effective
date of a rent increase to discuss the reasons for the increase. The homeowners’ committee may
consist of no more than five people, who are mobile homeowners in the park and who are designated
by a majority of the owners or by the board of directors of the homeowners’ association if formed as

At the meeting, the park owner or subdivision developer must in good
faith disclose and explain all material factors resulting in the decision to increase the lot rental amount,
reduce services or utilities, or change rules and regulations, including how those factors justify the
specific change proposed.
21
Dispute Resolution
If the meeting regarding a rent increase does not resolve the issue, then additional meetings may be
requested. Section 723.037(4), F.S., provides that, if subsequent meetings are unsuccessful, within 30
days of the last scheduled meeting, the mobile home owners may petition CTMH to initiate mediation if
a majority of the affected have designated, in writing, that:
22
The rental increase is unreasonable;
The rental increase has made the lot rental amount unreasonable;
The decrease in services or utilities is not accompanied by a corresponding decrease in rent or
is otherwise unreasonable; or
The change in the rules and regulations is unreasonable.
Within 30 days of the last scheduled meeting, a park owner may also petition CTMH for mediation of
the dispute.
23
If the mediation does not successfully resolve the dispute, then the parties may file an action in circuit
court to challenge the rental increase.
24
The court may refer the action to nonbinding arbitration
pursuant to s. 44.103, F.S.
Section 723.038, F.S., provides that, upon receipt of the petition from either party, CTMH must appoint
a qualified mediator to conduct mediation proceedings unless the parties timely notify CTMH in writing
that they have selected a mediator.
The person appointed by CTMH to serve as mediator must be a qualified mediator from a list of circuit
court mediators in each judicial circuit and who has met training and educational requirements
established by the Supreme Court. If such mediators are not available, CTMH may select a mediator
from the list maintained by the Florida Growth Management Conflict Resolution Consortium.
25
Within 20 days of receiving a petition to mediate a dispute, CTMH must notify the parties that a
mediator has been appointed by FTMH. The parties may accept the mediator appointed by CTMH or,
within 30 days, select a mediator to mediate the dispute.
26
The parties may agree to select their own mediator to be governed by the rules of procedure
established by CTMH. The parties may agree to waive mediation, or the petitioning party may withdraw
the petition prior to mediation. Upon the conclusion of the mediation, the mediator must notify CTMH
that the mediation has been concluded.
27
The resolution of a dispute arising from a mediation may not be deemed to be final agency action.
However, either party may initiate an action in the circuit court to enforce a resolution or agreement
arising from a mediation proceeding which has been reduced to writing. The circuit court must consider

Mobile Home Relocation
In 2001, the Legislature created the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation (corporation) in s.
723.0611, F.S., to provide for the collection and payment of relocation expenses for mobile home
owners displaced by a change in land use for a mobile home park.
30
Specifically, s. 723.0612, F.S.,
provides for relocation expenses to be paid from the corporation to the mobile home owner from the
Florida Mobile Home Relocation Trust Fund (fund).
31
The amount of the payment is the actual moving expenses of relocating the mobile home to a new
location within a 50-mile radius of the vacated park, or $3,000 for a single-section mobile home or
$6,000 for a multi-section mobile home, whichever is less.
32
In lieu of collecting moving expenses from the corporation, a mobile home owner may elect to abandon
the home and collect payment from the corporation in the amount of $1,375 for a single section mobile
home and $2,750 for a multi-section mobile home.
33
Upon election of abandonment, the mobile home
owner must deliver to the park owner an endorsed title with a valid release of all liens on the title to the
mobile home.
34
The mobile home park owner is required to pay the corporation an amount equal to the
amount the mobile home owner is entitled to receive from the corporation.
35
The mobile home park owner is required to pay the corporation an amount equal to the amount the
mobile home owner is entitled to receive from the corporation.
36
The mobile home park owner is not required to make the payments, nor is the mobile home owner
entitled to compensation, if:
37
The mobile home owner is moved to another space in the park or to another mobile home park
at the park owner’s expense;
The mobile home owner notified the mobile home park owner, before the notice of a change in
land use, that he or she was vacating the premises;
A mobile home owner abandons the home in the park; or
The mobile home owner had an eviction action for nonpayment of lot rental amount filed against
him or her prior to the mailing date of the change in the use of land.
The Mobile Home Relocation Trust Fund has a current balance of $5,671,376.86. Payouts from the
fund for the past five fiscal years are as follows:

FY 18/19 FY 19/20 FY 20/21 FY 21/22 FY 22/23

Invitees
An invitee
39
of a mobile home owner may enter or leave the home owner's site without the home owner
or invitee being required to pay additional rent, a fee, or any charge whatsoever. Any mobile home park
rule or regulation is null and void if it provides fees or charges to the contrary to this right of access.
40
All guests, family members, or invitees of a mobile home owner are required to abide by properly
promulgated rules and regulations.
Section 723.051(3), F.S., provides that an “invitee” is a person whose stay at the request of a mobile
home owner does not exceed 15 consecutive days or 30 total days per year, unless such person has
the permission of the park owner or unless permitted by a properly promulgated rule or regulation. The
spouse of a mobile home owner shall not be considered an invitee.
Live-in Aides
The Fair Housing Act requires owners and landlords to make reasonable accommodations if the
accommodation may be necessary to ensure that a person with a disability has equal opportunity to
use and enjoy the dwelling. An example of a reasonable accommodation is not counting a live-in aide
as an additional tenant or guest.
41
A reasonable accommodation is a change, exception, adaptation or modification to a policy, program or
service that allows a person with a disability to use and enjoy a dwelling. The term also applies to public
and common use spaces.
In general, a live-in aide is a person who resides with one or more elderly persons, near-elderly
persons, or persons with disabilities, and who:
42
Is determined to be essential to the care and well-being of the persons;
Is not obligated for the support of the persons; and
Would not be living in the unit except to provide the necessary supportive services.
Effect of the Bill
The bill provides that, if the home owners file a petition for mediation with CTMH within 30 days of the
last meeting to resolve a dispute regarding a rent increase, the mobile home owners must provide to
the park owner, by certified mail, return receipt requested, a copy of the following:
The homeowners’ petition for mediation on a form adopted by CTMH rule;
The written designation with lot identification for each signature;
The notice or notices of lot rental increase, reduction in services or utilities, or change in rules
and regulations that is being challenged as unreasonable; and
The records that verify the selection of the homeowners’ committee.
The bill clarifies that a park owner, within 30 days after the last meeting to resolve a dispute regarding a
rent increase, may also petition CTMH to initiate mediation of the dispute.
The bill requires that a petition for mediation must be filed with CTMH in all cases for a determination of
adequacy and conformance of the petition requirements.
39
Black's Law Dictionary (11th ed. 2019) defines the term “invitee” to mean “someone who has an express or implied
invitation to enter or use another's premises, such as a business visitor or a member of the public to whom the premises
are held open. The occupier has a duty to inspect the premises and to warn the invitee of dangerous conditions.”

DATE: 2/9/2024
The bill requires CTMH to dismiss a petition for mediation in the event that the park owner and mobile
home owners fail to comply with required petition procedures.
The bill allows the park owner, within 10 days after receipt of the petition from the homeowners, to file
objections to the petition with CTMH. If a mediator has not been selected, CTMH must assign a
mediator within 10 days after receipt of the petition by the park owner.
The bill provides that the mobile home park owner and home owners may immediately enter into an
agreement to initiate mediation and select their own mediator.
The bill provides that a mediator selected by the parties:
Must be a qualified mediator selected from the list of circuit court mediators in each judicial
circuit or the list maintained by the Florida Growth Management Conflict Resolution Consortium.
Has judicial immunity in the same manner and to the same extent as a judge.
The bill clarifies that CTMH is required to appoint a qualified mediator to conduct mediation
proceedings and notify the parties within 20 days after receipt of a petition, if the parties have not
selected their own mediator.
The bill provides that a civil action may not be initiated unless the dispute has been submitted to
mediation.
Related to live-in aides and their assistants, the bill provides that:
A live-in health care aide or the aide's assistant, as provided for in the federal Fair Housing Act,
must have ingress and egress to and from the mobile home owner's site without the mobile
home owner, live-in health care aide, aide's assistant, or invitee being required to pay additional
rent, a fee, or any charge whatsoever, except that the mobile home owner must pay the cost of
a background check for the live-in health care aide or the aide's assistant if one is required.
The live-in health care aide or the aide's assistant does not have any rights of tenancy in the
mobile home park.
The mobile home owner must provide the name of the live-in health care aide or the aide's
assistant to the park owner or park manager and the information required to conduct the
background check if one is required.
The mobile home owner is responsible for removing the live-in health care aide or the aide's
assistant and covering the costs associated with such removal.
The bill clarifies the purpose of the Florida Mobile Home Relocation Corporation is to address voluntary
closures of mobile home parks due to a change in the use of the land.
The bill increases the relocation payments to the mobile home owner from the corporation:
If a mobile home owner is required to move due to a change in use of the land, when the fixed
payments are less than the actual moving expenses, to:
o $6,500 for a single-section mobile home, from $3,000.
o $11,500 for a multisection mobile home, from $6,000.
If a mobile home owner abandons the mobile home in the mobile home park, to:
o $3,000 for a single section, from $1,375.
o $5,000 for a multisection, from $2,750.
The bill allows the moving contractor who moves a mobile homeowner related to relocation to redeem
the voucher from the corporation for up to 2 years after the date of issuance.
The bill limits what a park owner must pay to a mobile home owner who chooses abandonment, to
$1,375 for a single section, and $2,750 for a multisection, instead of requiring the park owner to match
the payment made by the corporation.
The bill requires CTMH to adopt rules to enforce the bill.

II. FISCAL ANALYSIS & ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT
A. FISCAL IMPACT ON STATE GOVERNMENT:
1. Revenues:
None.
2. Expenditures:
The bill will increase expenditures by CTMH for enforcement due to increasing the jurisdiction
CTMH has related to mobile home parks. The bill will likely increase expenditures from the fund as
certain payments have increased. Current trust fund revenues should support the increase in
expenditures.
B. FISCAL IMPACT ON LOCAL GOVERNMENTS:
1. Revenues:
None.
2. Expenditures:
None.
C. DIRECT ECONOMIC IMPACT ON PRIVATE SECTOR:
The bill may allow more mobile home owners to have a live-in aide without an additional charge.

III. COMMENTS
A. CONSTITUTIONAL ISSUES:
1. Applicability of Municipality/County Mandates Provision:
Not applicable. This bill does not appear to require counties or municipalities to spend funds or take
action requiring the expenditures of funds; reduce the authority that counties or municipalities have
to raise revenues in the aggregate; or reduce the percentage of state tax shared with counties or
municipalities.
2. Other:
None.
B. RULE-MAKING AUTHORITY:
The bill requires CTMH to adopt rules to enforce the bill.
C. DRAFTING ISSUES OR OTHER COMMENTS:
The bill is unclear if a requirement that DBPR appoint a mediator is within 10 days after the park owner
files objections to the home owner’s petition, within 10 days after the home owners have filed their
petition, or within 10 days after the park owner files a petition.

selected by the parties and notify the parties of a filed petition within 20 days of receiving the
petition.
Provides requirements for what information and documents must be in a petition submitted to
DBPR.
Requires DBPR to dismiss a deficient petition.
This analysis is drafted to the committee substitute as passed by the Regulatory Reform & Economic
Development Subcommittee.
