Park (mobile) homes
Selling or giving away a park home
Selling
The park owner gets up to 10% of the selling price (known as a 鈥榗ommission鈥�) when you sell your home.
You鈥檒l need to:
- give the buyer certain information - for example about the commission and pitch fees
- tell the park owner about the sale
- assign (transfer) the pitch agreement to the new owner
- tell the buyer to fill in a 鈥楴otice of Assignment form鈥� so they can pay the commission to the park owner
You must fill in the correct form for park home buyers and sellers to sell your home.
Park homes do not need an Energy Performance Certificate (EPC).
The park owner may be able to object to you selling your home. They must apply to a tribunal.
Giving away
You have the right to 鈥榞ift鈥� (give away) your park home and pass on your agreement to a family member. Use the 鈥楴otice of proposed gift form鈥� to send the park owner proof of how you鈥檙e related to the family member.
Inheritance rules
Anyone will be able to carry on the agreement when you die if they鈥檙e:
- a family member living with you at the time you die
- your husband, wife or civil partner
Someone who is not living with you or is not your husband, wife or civil partner will have to get approval from the park owner to live there.
