Arizona_tucson__rancho_los_amigos_mhc__mike_christy__arizona_daily_starAbout 70 residents of Rancho Los Amigos manufactured home community (MHC) in Tucson, Arizona have been notified they will have to move by Aug. 1, 2016 to make way for a232-unit apartment complex. Alta Vista Communities has purchased the community for $4.8 million, as tucson informs MHProNews.

State law requires community owners give 180-day notice to residents when an MHC is to be repurposed. A state fund established in the 1970s, and financed by a personal property tax assessment on each home, will pay up to $5,000 to move a single-section home and $10,000 to move a multi-section home.

The Arizona Association of Manufactured Home Owners and Manufactured Housing Communities of Arizona work with community management to set up informational meetings for the residents.

If residents choose to abandon their homes they can receive up to $1,250 for a single-section home and $2,500 for a multi-section. ##
