I don't know about greed, but ignorance definitely plays a big part. Like ignoring the fact that stuff happens, but bills still need to be paid. The government sure isn't going to say to the landowner, "Oh, you missed 3 months of rent last year? Well, just pay us 3/4 of the taxes then."

@@vcbrittney4072 Yeah its common down here that most older parks the owners only own the trailers which are usually cheaper and pay lot rent which used to be cheap but aren't as much anymore. almost all of the trailers are not really mobile and can't be moved without huge expense if at all. In other parks where people own both the mobile home and the land they have more rights but the problem with most of them is the insurance maximum is around 50k but nicer mobile homes with lots can cost 150k or more to buy.

@@bbdarling182 Inland. They move inland. To a zone free of hurricanes and floods. Or here's a novel idea: don't buy a trailer that's placed in a flood or hurricane zone to begin with.
@@jennifer9528 All valid points. However, these folks already own mobile homes so moving is going to be a very costly proposition and they seem to be struggling financially as well. It is a sad situation that doesn’t have a quick, easy solution. Personally, if I know of anyone that is considering a move to Florida, I say Don’t do it.
The owners of the land provide a spot to locate a mobile home. They provide the infrastructure for electricity and sewage as well as storm drains. If it is a slum it’s because the people make it that way. Unfortunately if there are 100 mobile homes in one of these mobile home parks and you have 10 slumlords that own trailers and rent them or people who don’t take care of property, it gets a bad reputation. Don’t live there that that’s my advice.
This has been an ongoing issue for years and years. Companies buy these mobile home parks "cheap" and then jack up the rents, cut the maintenance costs, and encourage or force people to leave. It's a tale as old as time.
This is happening to the mobile home park I currently live in. They keep raising the lot rent every year. Once someone can afford the home the management company buys it bulldozers it and puts in a new mobile home that they can sell for a high price. Hurricane Milton is just making it easier for them. Many of the homes in my neighborhood have been destroyed and these people have to leave now including my family
@@deadline1319 The rent goes up because taxes go up. Taxes go up because the value of land goes up. The value of land goes up because the demand to live there goes up. And with the influx of new residents comes the need for more human infrastructure to run the place (educators, first responders, linemen, builders, contractors, government administrators, etc). They require a fair wage in order to live within a reasonable proximity to work. It's all interconnected. No one told the residents in the trailer parks that they had to live in a flood and hurricane zone. They chose to live there in spite of the countless warnings. They knew this devastation was a distinct possibility, and yet they did it anyway because it's a cheap alternative to a long-term vacation. It's like staying at the Belagio in Vegas, having the time of your life while partying and gambling, and then suddenly losing your hand at the blackjack table. Do you really expect to walk out without settling your hotel bill simply because you gambled and lost? It's ludicrous to move to a place you know comes with risks, and then becoming upset when you actually have to pay after those risks are realized. It's easy to blame the landlord when you don't want to accept accountability for your own poor choices.
@@jennifer9528 I'm going to guess that you don't live in Florida with that ridiculous response. In every part of the country there are natural disasters that happen, no where is 100% safe. By the way I have done research on the management company that now owns the land, they come in raise the rent continuously until all the original residents are gone. One person at another park under this company said it went all the way up to $800 a month and guess what?! That was the last rent increase for a few years. So don't tell me it has to do with taxes unless you have done the research. Also central Florida where I live is not know for flooding like it did with Hurricane Milton. My neighbor who has lived here for 30 years has never seen the water as high as it was with this hurricane. These managements companies taking over trailer parks don't care about the residents that have lived here before they owned the property. I've seen them force these elderly people out so they can bulldoze their homes and put bigger more expensive trailers in. I had a neighbor who lived here for 36 years and can no longer afford their home, there were no lot rent increases before this company bought the property 6 years ago. Unless you have done extensive research on the issue, you don't know the truth cause it ain't because of taxes
$990 per month for a space rent you don't own? Crazy, my mortgage on a 3-bedroom 1400 sq ft. house is $1100. What a scam, the monthly space rental is more than the mobile home is ever worth!
Your near the beach you pay for paradise and the seniors get screwd .. I betcha equity life styles is selling that land to a developer and they want the seniors to get out it's all about the money folks not the people...
Was this mortgage rate before or after the interest rates shot up? Also how much was your home? A $350k house is easily $2500+ a month with current rates and insurance.
I learned this the hard way about condos. Fortunately the market went up enough that I was able to sell out but for a while it was looking really bad when they were talking possible bankruptcy and massive assessments. Never again lol. Sad for these people but it's not the owners fault if you can't pay your rent. Devastating for the tenants. My heart goes out to them. :( our government throws money everywhere except to help our own citizens in crisis.
You're right. I bought raw land long ago, but the documents at purchase *stated I do not own the mineral rights under my property,* and mining operations by others can take place under it. That's the norm. Some homes in the US have been cracked, practically in half, due to sinking from such mining.
@@wownewstome6123 That's because it is a lease! if you sell that property all you are doing is transferring the lease to someone else. The government own the lands.

this is happening across the whole country. Not just in Florida here. I know a blind woman, who lives in Texas, and is having the same problem, as she can’t afford to do anything, because she had a massive stroke, but of course, the same thing has happened to her that’s happening to these people.

@@bsgvlog5640 It's not but the Texas government should be assisting people in that situation but they are too busy with their right wing agenda and that would be socialism anyway.....see how that works?
ELS also owns Lake Haven in Dunedin, Fl. I have a trailer there. They also own a $ TON of properties, they are a HORRIBLE company. We get a new office person every year or so, they never last. They quit
The same thing is happening to those in apartments. First-floor residents are being kicked out so apartment owners can upgrade and charge more. My apartment manager was screaming at people and threatening them to get their stuff and leave immediately after sending an email that residents could live for free for the month. Horrendous.
Big corporations have purchased all of the low income mobile home parks and have doubled lot rent. They are squeezing people who have nothing to give.. it should be illegal to do this to low income people
Americans can leave their own behind. They need cheap slave labor and those cheap slave laborers will pay. Hell,even my rent increased more than my cola raise. Us old low income people are in real trouble in this, this nation.
This is the most disgusting article I've ever read or seen! Are seniors living check to check just be able to leave their homes that before Milton were worth 1000's, not 6 figures either! Now they're taking from them their dignity and their homes! But you aren't allowed by law to be homeless in Florida or you go to jail! This whole thing should make every resident in Florida contact the Governor, Senate, or House of Representatives should step in! Where is the Dept of Aging in this? This is so ridiculous!
I live in a small ELS community in Pinellas county & these people are the worst. They own many many of these parks throughout FL & do little to upkeep them. I've been here almost 12 years & I can't even count how many managers, administrative helpers & maintenance people we've had, because they pay little, with no benefits & they just suck. Most of our managers have never been managers, have no idea how to deal with their 55+ community members, they're rude, demanding & nasty. But it's fairly cheap, so I stay, but a For Sale sign will be going up, soon. I've had enough of hurricanes & heat! Plus, just the amount of nasty people in this state...it's great to visit, but not worth it to live here!
Umm....so you want government controlling rents and housing costs? They can't even figure how to get your mail to you. The only carrier losing millions per quarter while the others are raking in millions. People complain the government can't do anything right and then cry for that same government to fix all their problems. If you are 50 and live in a trailer you have been an under achiever your whole life.
Price seems about right, depending on the size of the trailer. Even a mini split system now cost about $4,500. My house is 1,250 square feet. The central air system with new ducting cost $8,400. But to lose it all, man, that sucks.
America needs to stand tall and say no to greed, this greed stuff is getting out of control, I don't like greedy people they make me want to vomit. semper fi. wishing you guys the best.👍
This is not surprising. They're going to clear people out the mountains in western North Carolina too (and surrounding areas) too. Renters and owners - one way or the other.
One lady summed it all up, paying alot of money to a corporation. Lot rent at $ 990 is too high. My park is private owned, lot rent is $ closing in on $ 700 soon.
I bought my mobile home with the lot so I own the land it's on. I do pay a small HOA for the amenities with 4 pools, etc. If you don't own the land you're just a renter and at the decision of the owner. Do one of those deals where the tenants buy the park maybe.
@wayne, I wish I paid $700, Mine will be around $1100 next year , when I bought my mobile home rent was $400,Im on disability and cola doesnt even cover the rent hikes
Okay, it's sad that this happens. However the new reality is that all Mobile Home parks need to go. A mobile home should not be allowed to rest on Florida soil now that we live in a new storm strength reality. Really, they need to go, they are situated at grade level and they can't withstand heavy storms. The building codes need to change. Stop hoodwinking the elderly into thinking that Florida is an affordable place to retire because it's not.
Storm frequency and strength are exactly the same as they have been for recorded history. Overdevelopment and population center growth is the new reality.
@@pirate9154 I don't know where you're getting your information, but frequency & strength have been growing since the 80's, & I've been around that long to tell you that's the truth. I'm guessing you don't believe in climate change. 🙄
@@Diane-sx4qlI've been here since 78 and nothing has increased or intensified. It's the normal cycles we see every year...it just varies some back and forth. Urban sprawl and overcrowding is the problem,not the storms.
@@brianmartin414 You may live somewhere that has been a lucky statistical outlier. It's clear storms have been getting more intense overall, and areas have had what were 100-year storms more than once in a decade or two, places that weren't even on flood maps are now flooding, etc. That's why insurance companies that follow big-picture statistics closely, are raising rates or getting out of Florida completely.
If you look at the eviction notice the delinquent rent is for the LOT. Still have to pay for the lot. The mobile home damage is your own issue and your insurance should cover that loss, not the land owner.
Almost none of us have insurance because all the insurance companies left FL a couple years ago. If you can get it, it's more than your rent! Y'all say these things like it's so easy. It's not, if you want to live here. I've decided I do not want to live here anymore & have a For Sale sign. Florida sucks!
Move from Florida it's that easy. Y'all want to live the glamorous florida life.But when the storm comes, you want us taxpayers to bail you out. I don't live in florida for that exact reason.R on the gulf coast. 'cause I have a high enough IQ to know There's gonna be another storm.
@@toddcotten8157 Exactly. I live in a dink hole town, where no one really cares about coming here. There has been very little growth in the 32 years I have lived here. Also, no significant natural disasters. 😎😁
This is very devastating but when hurricane Katrina hit South Florida I lived in a trailer park where I owned my trailer and rented the property. Every month my rent was due My home was my property My responsibility We have insurance which is mandatory when you live in these parks. It is our responsibility to go to our insurance companies and get the money and repair her homes It's not the parks sadly they are due their rent and if you don't pay it yes they have the right to evict you. There's no law that states you don't have to pay your rent after a storm. It's devastating yes it's sad yes but the landlord has a right You're still using his property you have to pay it.😢
You are right there are no laws. It comes down to humanity. These folks aren’t just bums not paying their rent. They are seniors, many with health problems, who have through no fault of their own, are in need of help. They gave those people ‘5’ days to vacate! They aren’t even 30 days behind in their lot rent yet!
True, but talking in consideration give people time to get back together if people been paying rent on time for 10 years landlords can help their tenants out come on nowadays people paying to rent over 2000 or more😮
Maybe the government needs to come in and give the community park some very very very bad find and work order. Request to bring properties up to code compliance or allow them to forego the rent until the stuff is done and not evict people
Beyond glad my family sold our home in NJ. It was the nicest trailer park I've seen but rent was getting out of hand. 800$ rent was before I left. Now my family pays about 2k for the whole year and we own our acre of land. Never had so much space in my life. It feels unreal at times how much space just 1 acre is. Hey living in a box all your life and then seeing outside the box is something else, I tell ya.
All the people commenting thinking if they owned the land and signed agreements with people that they would break put the charity box and give out free rent to everyone. Nkt a chance....does your car payment stop too...what about free groceries. I live on the water in Florida and wouldn't expect a penny if tragedy hits me.
My heart goes up to them, but the city., state, and mobile homes park in e that Florida is no place to have a mobile or prefab home because you have frequent hurricanes. People should know that also. And the insurance is so very high.
My manufactured home is rated for a cat 4 hurricanes. It’s been through 3 major hurricanes with no problems. But a hailstorm did cause $20000 in damages.
If the trailers aren't in livable conditions then they need to break their lease and move, you can't just squat and not pay rent. This is the businesses way of kicking them out so they can re build. It's sad these northern companies buy up all the southern real estate.
The folks who own the park probably have mortgages to pay as well. Many things like eviction notices are automated. There is no real thought process behind them. On the same token, I am guessing that this may be the time for some to walk away if they can because I don’t see this situation getting better any time soon.
These people own their mobile homes, they only rent the lot. Many probably are able to get by because their homes are paid off and they just have to pay lot rent, utilities, and upkeep. If they are still paying for their mobile home, how can they just walk away and find another place to live when they still owe the bank for the mortgage. These are seniors living on a fixed income and I would imagine as seniors, have medical issues. While having a mobile home and not owning the land is not ideal, many move into these parks because as they have gotten older they have downsized because it has been become difficult to maintain a large home and property.
haven't you been watching the many TV spots from around the ruins in FL, Governor Napoleon Complex is doing something; he is taking victory laps around FL praising himself for his wonderful response and all of them many great things he has done behind his miniature lectern in his lift boots. What hasn't he done; he hasn't proposed or signed a single bill or declaration to help the people that lost their homes, their belongings, their business and their places of employment and he won't, because he is wholly owned by Big Insurance and he his future political aspirations don't include the state of FL.
Very crappy, kicking out people because they can't pay lot rent for a place that was destroyed by a hurricane and yet the company just can't give them a break
The Corp will clear the trailers and section off the land for private development. They will either develop it themselves or pass it along to someone else. The Corp was just waiting for something to happen to make their move.
Another Park in port richey making them honor their leases, wont let them sell to new people. Tying peoples hands behind their backs so to speak will need legal aid
This has happened all over Florida after nearly every hurricane for over 20 years. The land is worth 20 times or more for development of condos or a neighborhood of permanent houses than rental revenue could ever make.
Not in Florida these days. Because the mobile home park is near enough the ocean to be subject to storm surge the building codes are probably pretty pricy. Right now we are seeing current home prices start to decline across the state, condo prices are plummeting. While the land has value I don't think it's still like the old days where developers are rushing to get everyone out and build.
So are the tenants renting the pad or the mobil home also? If the trailer is unsafe then they do need to move for repairs, replacement or demolition. That's one of the many problems with mobile homes and living in Florida in general. People in traditional houses are also often unable to live in their homes currently.
@@hihatjas9477 then they need to pay their rent for the lot. it's not the park's responsibility for the damage to their homes, just like anyone else in a house.
@ abotu 1:25 or so she answered the issue. So many mobile home parks have been bought up by giant VC funds/companies. They'll price you out, boot you then take what you leave behind and start over. They know mobile home owners are screwed into staying put until they are broke because they are 5-10K to move and now there is almsot never anywhere for them to go.
The land is too valuable nowdays, they'll remove everyone and build apartment buildings
With less needed payouts from the insurance companies.

But Americans will buy from them no matter what. Example Walmart.

No one owns land in America. Let the City/County decide that they want your land.
Even when you own the land its really not yours....
Yes, but if you own it this type of crap wouldn’t happen. Small small chance the govt will come for it.

@@jwildmandvery true. This is very rare
This is why I would not buy a mobile home. It’s almost impossible to buy land suitable to set up camp. You have to buy your own land if you can.
You know, you CAN move them.. being "mobile" homes and all. 😉
@@timbuk1126Where do they move? And how do they come up with the most likely $10,000 to have their “mobile” moved?
@@bbdarling182 Inland. They move inland. To a zone free of hurricanes and floods. Or here's a novel idea: don't buy a trailer that's placed in a flood or hurricane zone to begin with.
@@jennifer9528 All valid points. However, these folks already own mobile homes so moving is going to be a very costly proposition and they seem to be struggling financially as well. It is a sad situation that doesn’t have a quick, easy solution. Personally, if I know of anyone that is considering a move to Florida, I say Don’t do it.
The "you will own nothing and be happy" quote from the WEF sure is looking real now, I'd say!
The crazy thing is they had the audacity to put it on their website. You can use the wayback machine to view it
Trailer park managers and owner the greatest of slum lords. Lived in two of them .
they sit around and look down on people. where's your check!
Were they from Chicago like the rest?
maybe some truth but they have to get paid just everyone else for services rendered.
@@rosesmith6208 not if the place is trashed by storms. they need to do REPAIRS and get off their asses.
The owners of the land provide a spot to locate a mobile home. They provide the infrastructure for electricity and sewage as well as storm drains. If it is a slum it’s because the people make it that way. Unfortunately if there are 100 mobile homes in one of these mobile home parks and you have 10 slumlords that own trailers and rent them or people who don’t take care of property, it gets a bad reputation. Don’t live there that that’s my advice.
This has been an ongoing issue for years and years. Companies buy these mobile home parks "cheap" and
then jack up the rents, cut the maintenance costs, and encourage or force people to leave. It's a tale as old as time.
I can't count how many stories I've seen just like this on the news. All the trailer parks in my city disappeared.
This is happening to the mobile home park I currently live in. They keep raising the lot rent every year. Once someone can afford the home the management company buys it bulldozers it and puts in a new mobile home that they can sell for a high price. Hurricane Milton is just making it easier for them. Many of the homes in my neighborhood have been destroyed and these people have to leave now including my family
@@deadline1319 The rent goes up because taxes go up. Taxes go up because the value of land goes up. The value of land goes up because the demand to live there goes up. And with the influx of new residents comes the need for more human infrastructure to run the place (educators, first responders, linemen, builders, contractors, government administrators, etc). They require a fair wage in order to live within a reasonable proximity to work. It's all interconnected.
No one told the residents in the trailer parks that they had to live in a flood and hurricane zone. They chose to live there in spite of the countless warnings. They knew this devastation was a distinct possibility, and yet they did it anyway because it's a cheap alternative to a long-term vacation. It's like staying at the Belagio in Vegas, having the time of your life while partying and gambling, and then suddenly losing your hand at the blackjack table. Do you really expect to walk out without settling your hotel bill simply because you gambled and lost?
It's ludicrous to move to a place you know comes with risks, and then becoming upset when you actually have to pay after those risks are realized. It's easy to blame the landlord when you don't want to accept accountability for your own poor choices.
@@jennifer9528 I'm going to guess that you don't live in Florida with that ridiculous response. In every part of the country there are natural disasters that happen, no where is 100% safe. By the way I have done research on the management company that now owns the land, they come in raise the rent continuously until all the original residents are gone. One person at another park under this company said it went all the way up to $800 a month and guess what?! That was the last rent increase for a few years. So don't tell me it has to do with taxes unless you have done the research. Also central Florida where I live is not know for flooding like it did with Hurricane Milton. My neighbor who has lived here for 30 years has never seen the water as high as it was with this hurricane. These managements companies taking over trailer parks don't care about the residents that have lived here before they owned the property. I've seen them force these elderly people out so they can bulldoze their homes and put bigger more expensive trailers in. I had a neighbor who lived here for 36 years and can no longer afford their home, there were no lot rent increases before this company bought the property 6 years ago. Unless you have done extensive research on the issue, you don't know the truth cause it ain't because of taxes
@@jennifer9528 also I will point out I was born in Florida, I grew up in Florida.
This is like Hawaii where they want to land to build giant million dollar homes for the rich
$990 per month for a space rent you don't own? Crazy, my mortgage on a 3-bedroom 1400 sq ft. house is $1100. What a scam, the monthly space rental is more than the mobile home is ever worth!
Exactly….not worth it…
Where do you live?
Your near the beach you pay for paradise and the seniors get screwd .. I betcha equity life styles is selling that land to a developer and they want the seniors to get out it's all about the money folks not the people...
No idea where you live but a 3 bedroom house is not renting for that cheap nearly anywhere in the country right now.
Was this mortgage rate before or after the interest rates shot up? Also how much was your home? A $350k house is easily $2500+ a month with current rates and insurance.
That property is worth more without the trailers.
NYC developers built them
You don't know that.
The investment fund just found a perfectly convenient reason to evict all the tenants and build 4 story apartments.
Exactly building worth more
It’s an old park. Replacing the utilities under the trailers make it un profitable.
Greedy developer is coming in to build some over priced houses.
It has never made sense to me how we buy a house or condo, yet don't ever own the land it sits on. How does this ever make sense?
I learned this the hard way about condos. Fortunately the market went up enough that I was able to sell out but for a while it was looking really bad when they were talking possible bankruptcy and massive assessments. Never again lol. Sad for these people but it's not the owners fault if you can't pay your rent. Devastating for the tenants. My heart goes out to them. :( our government throws money everywhere except to help our own citizens in crisis.
You're right. I bought raw land long ago, but the documents at purchase *stated I do not own the mineral rights under my property,* and mining operations by others can take place under it. That's the norm. Some homes in the US have been cracked, practically in half, due to sinking from such mining.
No, its not the norm. You should have done your research before accepting that deal.@wownewstome6123
If you pay property taxes you do not own your land.
@@wownewstome6123 That's because it is a lease! if you sell that property all you are doing is transferring the lease to someone else. The government own the lands.
I used to work for Equity Lifestyle properties. They are horrible. Extremely cheap and a very large national company. Hope these people get relief.
From who?! Americans long ago forfeited their rights when bowing to corporations. We sat back and allowed them to swallow up every sector of our lives.

Agreed! I live in an ELS park on the East Coast. They are the WORST! They do not care about the park or the residents. Just the money!
Same here in florida
I live in a family owned park in Clearwater. Much better but at any time they could decide to sell. The land value is crazy.
It's because putting up a apartment building or building homes is now worth more money to the company
America is a corporation. Pay up!
Except for illegals who get everything free
The same thing is happening to those in apartments. First-floor residents are being kicked out so apartment owners can upgrade and charge more. My apartment manager was screaming at people and threatening them to get their stuff and leave immediately after sending an email that residents could live for free for the month. Horrendous.

Do you rent the land but own your mobile home?
What a bunch of crooks to do people like that
Big corporations have purchased all of the low income mobile home parks and have doubled lot rent. They are squeezing people who have nothing to give.. it should be illegal to do this to low income people
Americans can leave their own behind. They need cheap slave labor and those cheap slave laborers will pay. Hell,even my rent increased more than my cola raise. Us old low income people are in real trouble in this, this nation.

Omg this is so sad! Such Devastation ! And greed on top of it?? Wow ..
This is the most disgusting article I've ever read or seen! Are seniors living check to check just be able to leave their homes that before Milton were worth 1000's, not 6 figures either! Now they're taking from them their dignity and their homes! But you aren't allowed by law to be homeless in Florida or you go to jail! This whole thing should make every resident in Florida contact the Governor, Senate, or House of Representatives should step in! Where is the Dept of Aging in this? This is so ridiculous!
I live in a small ELS community in Pinellas county & these people are the worst. They own many many of these parks throughout FL & do little to upkeep them. I've been here almost 12 years & I can't even count how many managers, administrative helpers & maintenance people we've had, because they pay little, with no benefits & they just suck. Most of our managers have never been managers, have no idea how to deal with their 55+ community members, they're rude, demanding & nasty. But it's fairly cheap, so I stay, but a For Sale sign will be going up, soon. I've had enough of hurricanes & heat! Plus, just the amount of nasty people in this state...it's great to visit, but not worth it to live here!
People should move out that state and don't move somewhere else it will fail. If people isn't their they want make money. 😅
I wouldn't live in that swamp box of Desanto's for all the tea in China.
all florida mobile home communities should be owned by Florida only and not out of state companies. it bull crap Florida is not the same any more.

Shows that the home to homeless pipeline is quick and fast. Florida, this is your government at work.

Umm....so you want government controlling rents and housing costs? They can't even figure how to get your mail to you. The only carrier losing millions per quarter while the others are raking in millions. People complain the government can't do anything right and then cry for that same government to fix all their problems.

My question is how are these residents not making a killing off the reusable materials swept around by the storm
personally . at $7000+ heating n air unit for a trailer. I think you got taken for a ride
Price seems about right, depending on the size of the trailer. Even a mini split system now cost about $4,500. My house is 1,250 square feet. The central air system with new ducting cost $8,400. But to lose it all, man, that sucks.
@@alankcpa And the contractor is driving a 90000 dollar F250. Who do you think is going to pay for these ridiculous truck prices?
The price is in line with the current market. I installed a whole new central air conditioning unit, which cost me $9,000 for my double-wide trailer.
Personally, you don't know what you don't know. A mobile unit is all in one.
It's EXTREMELY EXPENSIVE HERE, but that does sound a bit high!
America needs to stand tall and say no to greed, this greed stuff is getting out of control, I don't like greedy people they make me want to vomit. semper fi. wishing you guys the best.👍
This is how mobile home parks operate now.
They raise rents until people can’t afford to live there and then confiscate the mobile homes for resale.
Mobile homes should not exist in Florida, Louisiana and Texas
Some people should have manners, but they don't.
Eviction is not legal during a natural disaster.. fl law no your rights
It's after the disaster now, so they totally can now
@@williamsantisi1315 umm… I think it’s legal in Florida. So sorry.
This is not surprising. They're going to clear people out the mountains in western North Carolina too (and surrounding areas) too. Renters and owners - one way or the other.
@BETSY, Corralling people
One lady summed it all up, paying alot of money to a corporation. Lot rent at $ 990 is too high. My park is private owned, lot rent is $ closing in on $ 700 soon.
maybe they should band together, form a co-op, and buy their own chunk of land so they don't have to be subject to a landlord.
Florida is expensive thanks de santis
900 is ridiculous
I bought my mobile home with the lot so I own the land it's on. I do pay a small HOA for the amenities with 4 pools, etc. If you don't own the land you're just a renter and at the decision of the owner. Do one of those deals where the tenants buy the park maybe.
@wayne, I wish I paid $700, Mine will be around $1100 next year , when I bought my mobile home rent was $400,Im on disability and cola doesnt even cover the rent hikes
Even after a storm YOU STILL HAVE TO PAY YOUR RENT. or Mortgage.
The county, city, town still expect you to pay the taxes!
Okay, it's sad that this happens. However the new reality is that all Mobile Home parks need to go. A mobile home should not be allowed to rest on Florida soil now that we live in a new storm strength reality. Really, they need to go, they are situated at grade level and they can't withstand heavy storms. The building codes need to change. Stop hoodwinking the elderly into thinking that Florida is an affordable place to retire because it's not.
Storm frequency and strength are exactly the same as they have been for recorded history. Overdevelopment and population center growth is the new reality.
I gotta agree!
@@pirate9154 I don't know where you're getting your information, but frequency & strength have been growing since the 80's, & I've been around that long to tell you that's the truth. I'm guessing you don't believe in climate change. 🙄
@@Diane-sx4qlI've been here since 78 and nothing has increased or intensified. It's the normal cycles we see every year...it just varies some back and forth. Urban sprawl and overcrowding is the problem,not the storms.
@@brianmartin414 You may live somewhere that has been a lucky statistical outlier. It's clear storms have been getting more intense overall, and areas have had what were 100-year storms more than once in a decade or two, places that weren't even on flood maps are now flooding, etc.
That's why insurance companies that follow big-picture statistics closely, are raising rates or getting out of Florida completely.
a company ran in a shit hole city 100s miles away, im sure they got insight on the situation.
Costs for housing and everything else in Florida is driving people out. Especially on the coasts.
If you look at the eviction notice the delinquent rent is for the LOT. Still have to pay for the lot. The mobile home damage is your own issue and your insurance should cover that loss, not the land owner.
Almost none of us have insurance because all the insurance companies left FL a couple years ago. If you can get it, it's more than your rent! Y'all say these things like it's so easy. It's not, if you want to live here. I've decided I do not want to live here anymore & have a For Sale sign. Florida sucks!

Every month my rent was due My home was my property My responsibility We have insurance which is mandatory when you live in these parks. It is our responsibility to go to our insurance companies and get the money and repair her homes It's not the parks sadly they are due their rent and if you don't pay it yes they have the right to evict you. There's no law that states you don't have to pay your rent after a storm. It's devastating yes it's sad yes but the landlord has a right You're still using his property you have to pay it.😢
You are right there are no laws. It comes down to humanity. These folks aren’t just bums not paying their rent. They are seniors, many with health problems, who have through no fault of their own, are in need of help. They gave those people ‘5’ days to vacate! They aren’t even 30 days behind in their lot rent yet!

Karma for supporting the chosen people stealing land.

Maybe the government needs to come in and give the community park some very very very bad find and work order. Request to bring properties up to code compliance or allow them to forego the rent until the stuff is done and not evict people
This is horrible Where is these people going to go?They don't have money.
This is what happens when corporations buy trailer parks. It's all greed.
Why the hell would anybody want to live there anyway The state is a beach face it
unregulated capitalism at its finest. That land is worth more than your rent, multimillion dollar condos coming in.
Beyond glad my family sold our home in NJ. It was the nicest trailer park I've seen but rent was getting out of hand. 800$ rent was before I left. Now my family pays about 2k for the whole year and we own our acre of land. Never had so much space in my life. It feels unreal at times how much space just 1 acre is. Hey living in a box all your life and then seeing outside the box is something else, I tell ya.
I stopped my lot rent, and am eagerly awaiting my day in court here in St Petersburg at Twin City MHP. Let's go...
Bills don't stop because you're hurting.
All the people commenting thinking if they owned the land and signed agreements with people that they would break put the charity box and give out free rent to everyone. Nkt a chance....does your car payment stop too...what about free groceries. I live on the water in Florida and wouldn't expect a penny if tragedy hits me.
Doesn't the mobile home parks just on the land not the trailers? So if that's the case you are responsible for the upkeep of your mobile home
My heart goes up to them, but the city., state, and mobile homes park in e that Florida is no place to have a mobile or prefab home because you have frequent hurricanes. People should know that also. And the insurance is so very high.
My manufactured home is rated for a cat 4 hurricanes.
It’s been through 3 major hurricanes with no problems. But a hailstorm did cause $20000 in damages.
If the trailers aren't in livable conditions then they need to break their lease and move, you can't just squat and not pay rent. This is the businesses way of kicking them out so they can re build. It's sad these northern companies buy up all the southern real estate.
I live in Florida the damage is real so many people loss everything the floods were terrible so much lost & alot of families & older people need help
People wonder why there are so many homeless everywhere.
If they were illegal immigrants they'd be taken care of that's really sad
Immigration isn't the problem but politicians would like you to believe that they are because that way you hold the wrong people accountable.
They are illegal immigrants no native Indian invited you to steal the land. Karma
@@IMSiegfried Agree! Im so sick of hearing that!
not true,they want you to think that
Stop believing the lies conservative media is feeding you!
The land is more valuable than the homes on them. Sad. 😢
The folks who own the park probably have mortgages to pay as well. Many things like eviction notices are automated. There is no real thought process behind them. On the same token, I am guessing that this may be the time for some to walk away if they can because I don’t see this situation getting better any time soon.
These people own their mobile homes, they only rent the lot. Many probably are able to get by because their homes are paid off and they just have to pay lot rent, utilities, and upkeep. If they are still paying for their mobile home, how can they just walk away and find another place to live when they still owe the bank for the mortgage. These are seniors living on a fixed income and I would imagine as seniors, have medical issues. While having a mobile home and not owning the land is not ideal, many move into these parks because as they have gotten older they have downsized because it has been become difficult to maintain a large home and property.
Mortgages? It’s huge. I haven’t done my research but it’s probably own by a big company.
I live in Syracuse NY my rent went from 735 per month to 1420 a month in 4 yrs

What a shame how people are it makes me sick. And that's all I can say about that.
The Corp will clear the trailers and section off the land for private development. They will either develop it themselves or pass it along to someone else. The Corp was just waiting for something to happen to make their move.
should be no LLC companys the new laws will change this!
Another Park in port richey making them honor their leases, wont let them sell to new people. Tying peoples hands behind their backs so to speak will need legal aid
Do not live in a mobile home in Florida or within an hour from the sea. It endangers your home and life.
Any home
This has happened all over Florida after nearly every hurricane for over 20 years. The land is worth 20 times or more for development of condos or a neighborhood of permanent houses than rental revenue could ever make.
Not in Florida these days. Because the mobile home park is near enough the ocean to be subject to storm surge the building codes are probably pretty pricy. Right now we are seeing current home prices start to decline across the state, condo prices are plummeting.
While the land has value I don't think it's still like the old days where developers are rushing to get everyone out and build.
Greedy people, landlords have bills too
So are the tenants renting the pad or the mobil home also? If the trailer is unsafe then they do need to move for repairs, replacement or demolition. That's one of the many problems with mobile homes and living in Florida in general. People in traditional houses are also often unable to live in their homes currently.
Most of them own the mobile home and rent the lot.
@@hihatjas9477 then they need to pay their rent for the lot. it's not the park's responsibility for the damage to their homes, just like anyone else in a house.
I'm sorry I wish I had more rooms to provide any relief for these people
@ abotu 1:25 or so she answered the issue. So many mobile home parks have been bought up by giant VC funds/companies. They'll price you out, boot you then take what you leave behind and start over. They know mobile home owners are screwed into staying put until they are broke because they are 5-10K to move and now there is almsot never anywhere for them to go.
Absolutely unacceptable. That corporation should be forced out of business. Where is the common decency and empathy.
Time to leave Florida
Im living with no floor in Massachusetts because insurance wont pay dont worry there are worser things in life then kidney failure.
You lease the land. Have your trailer moved to another state without hurricane season.
The moving fees will probably cost more than the trailer.
