Alabama park problems, computed

Alabama Mobile Home Park Laws — Eviction Rules

The three park questions for Alabama, answered from the state code itself: how much lot rent can go up (and what notice you must get), what happens when the park closes, and whether residents get a chance to buy the park when it sells. State law only — local ordinances are outside this dataset's scope, and the page says so wherever that matters.

Lot rent in Alabama

Alabama has no statewide cap on how much lot rent can go up. No statewide cap on rent amounts and no manufactured-home-park-specific rent statute was found in Alabama law. Lot tenancies run under the general Alabama Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act (Ala. Code 35-9A-101 et seq.), which sets notice-and-cure rules but no limit on how much rent may rise at a new term.

No park-specific rent-increase notice period was verified in the state code for this dataset — your lease and the general tenancy rules carry the timing.

Rule: No rent-increase notice period is set in Ala. Code ch. 9A. The closest statutory timing rule is Ala. Code 35-9A-441(b): a month-to-month tenancy may be terminated by written notice given at least 30 days before the periodic rental date — so a new rent amount for a month-to-month lot can in practice only arrive with a new term, but the statute does not call that a rent-increase notice, and noticeDays is therefore null rather than 30.

If the park closes or changes use

No closure-notice period was found in the state code for Alabama in our verified dataset — this page will not borrow a number from another state or a summary site.

No park-closure or change-of-use statute for manufactured home communities was found in Ala. Code Title 35, Chapter 9A. The only general timing rule located is the periodic-tenancy rule in 35-9A-441 (30 days to end a month-to-month tenancy). Do not print an Alabama 'park closure notice period' until a primary source for one is found.

Relocation help

No state relocation fund for park closures was found in Alabama's code in our verified dataset.

Purchase rights when the park sells

Alabama has no park purchase-opportunity law in the national NCLC survey (September 2026). That is a sourced fact, not a gap in our reading: the survey covers every state's manufactured-home community purchase law, and Alabama is not in it. When a park sells here, residents' rights come from the lease, the notice rules, and the eviction framework on this page — not from a purchase window.

Eviction ground rules

Alabama has no manufactured-home-park just-cause list in the code text reviewed; residential tenancies run under the Alabama Uniform Residential Landlord and Tenant Act. A month-to-month tenancy can be ended by either side on at least 30 days' written notice (Ala. Code 35-9A-441(b)), and during a term the landlord's termination route is the notice-and-cure scheme in 35-9A-421 — 14 days for a material noncompliance, and not less than seven days for unpaid rent, with the lease terminating only if the breach is not fixed in time.

Rule: Ala. Code 35-9A-441; Ala. Code 35-9A-421
