landlord obligations in a mobile home park
Is a landlord of a privately owned mobile home in a park responsible for maintaining the trees in a safe manner, and if so are they then responsible for any damages to personal property by failing to do so? And can they refuse to maintain these trees in the future due to personality conflicts?

Thanks

    It depends what trees you’re referring to and where they are located (in common areas or on a tenant’s lot). Personality conflicts are generally not sound grounds to refuse to maintain one’s property. If the landlord failed to use due care in the maintenance of its property, resulting in property damage, the person suffering the damage may have a negligence claim against the landlord. Seek the advice of counsel and good luck.

    If the mobile home park has more than ten mobile homes, the
    owner may be subject to Chapter 723, which does
    impose a statutory duty to maintain the premises.
    Exactly whether he is violating that duty would
    depend upon all the facts and circumstances, with
    the decision being made by a judge after all the
    evidence is presented to him or her. I agree with
    Mr. Gonzalez in that you should seek the advice of
    an attorney.
