What is the name of your state? NY
I sublease a mobile home. It's considered a sublease because the home owner has the original lease with the park owner. My lease states the rent at $300.00 per month. When I moved in last August I was required to fill out an information sheet with the park however since I sublease in the park they cannot require me to sign a lease with them. I have received threatening calls from the park and a note taped to my door that I will be evicted if I don't pay the back lot rent in the amount of $2160. I called the owner's son (who is like the super.) and after listening to him scream at me, while he was drunk, that he would give me 12 days to make good with the park or he was going to evict me blah blah blah. Since I wasn't "allowed" to ask him any questions or even tell him what the lease states I decided to call the park mgmt. When I called them they told me that my lease with the landlord had nothing to do with the park and I was required to pay the lot rent to the park. They made me sign a form stating I would pay $300 bi-weekly until the rent was paid to date and then continue paying the $300. monthly lot rent or they can evict within 3 days without going through the court. Is this legal and do I have any recourse? If you're going to treat me like an idiot in your response than I am not interested in what you have to say, regardless of who you are or what you know. Thank you to those that will post sound advice.
