Eviction Process

Mobile home park evictions in Michigan typically take longer than apartment evictions because the resident often owns the home. This is the step-by-step process under Mobile Home Commission Act (MCL 125.2301), with notice periods, court timelines, and operator best practices.

Lease Law
