New Hampshire park sale — resident rights
New Hampshire gives residents notice plus good-faith negotiation when a manufactured home park is sold. This page is the resident side of that law: what triggers it, who must be told, the exact clocks, and how a purchase actually gets organized — computed from the national survey of state purchase laws and the statute it cites.
Trigger: Owner is about to make a final unconditional acceptance of an offer to sell or transfer the community — notice is required 60 days before accepting the offer
Who must be told: Each tenant (with the price, terms and conditions and a copy of the offer); the New Hampshire Housing Finance Authority and the New Hampshire Manufactured Housing Association (without price, terms and conditions)
Who can act: Tenants or a tenants' association
