Wyoming has no manufactured home community tenancy act, and it is the one state whose general residential statute expressly leaves the lot out.

Cited to W.S. 1-21-1201 and 7 more sources · Verified August 23, 2026

The Wyoming Residential Rental Property Act covers a renter's principal place of residence together with its grounds and common areas, "excluding a mobile home lot," so its habitability duty, its deposit and itemization rules and its abandoned-property procedure do not reach a rented space. What governs instead is the lease, the common law of leases and forcible entry and detainer, under which a community owner may sue after rent has gone unpaid for three days and after serving a written notice to leave at least three days beforehand. One statute is written for these rentals: a lessor renting space for a house trailer site has a lien on the home for unpaid rent and other charges owed under the agreement, and thirty days after posting notice on the home may remove it, though not while the resident still lives there. There is no rent-increase notice and no cap, no closure or community sale rule, no purchase right for residents, no protection for selling the home in place and no protection against retaliation.

Governing actNo manufactured-home tenancy act
General law that also appliesNo general residential act reaches the lot: the Wyoming Residential Rental Property Act, W.S. 1-21-1201 through 1-21-1211, expressly excludes a mobile home lot from its definition of a residential rental unit. What governs is the lease and the common law of leases, with W.S. 34-2-128 and 34-2-129 on holding over and renewal, forcible entry and detainer under W.S. 1-21-1001 through 1-21-1017, and the lot lessor's lien on the home under W.S. 29-7-301.

Each row below is a state rule (with its citation) or an honest "no state rule" with what governs instead — lease terms and the general landlord-tenant law still apply where the park act is silent. This page covers a resident who owns the home and rents the lot; a home rented from the park is an ordinary Wyoming tenancy.

A. Scope — who and what the act covers

Rule Wyoming law Source
State agency with a role in park tenancies No state rule No Wyoming agency has any role in mobile home lot tenancies. There is no state manufactured-housing tenancy office, ombudsman or complaint program, and the statute that governs ordinary residential rentals leaves the lot out of its coverage. Disputes are decided by the circuit courts, which may inquire against those who unlawfully hold lands and tenements and must order restitution to the complaining party where the complaint is proved. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 1-21-1001
Resident may sue under the act No state rule Wyoming gives a lot resident no statutory claim, because there is no act to sue under. The remedies the Residential Rental Property Act gives a renter, including a civil action in circuit court for costs, damages and an order directing repairs, run only to a residential rental unit, and that term leaves out a mobile home lot. A resident may still sue on the lease itself under ordinary contract law. The one statute written for these lot rentals runs the other way, giving the lessor a lien on the home rather than giving the resident a remedy. W.S. 1-21-1206 (c); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 29-7-301 (a)
Minimum park size for the act to apply (lots) No state rule No minimum community size exists in Wyoming, because no tenancy law switches on at any number of lots. The single statute written for these rentals reaches any person leasing or renting space for a house trailer site, whatever the size of the property, and it is a lien provision rather than a tenancy regime. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Other size thresholds that switch rules on No state rule No lot count switches any rule on or off in Wyoming. The lot lessor's lien applies to anyone renting space for a house trailer site regardless of how many spaces there are, and the county land-development rules that treat mobile home courts as subdivisions turn on how land is divided rather than on the number of rented lots. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 18-5-302 (a)(vii)
Park-owned rental homes Ordinary landlord-tenant law applies Renting a home from the community owner is covered by Wyoming's general residential statute, while renting a bare lot is not. A residential rental unit means a renter's principal place of residence together with its appurtenances, grounds, common areas and facilities, excluding a mobile home lot. So a park-owned home a resident lives in carries the state's habitability duty, its deposit and itemization rules and its abandoned-property procedure, and the same community's rented spaces carry none of them. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 1-21-1202 (a); W.S. 1-21-1208 (a)
RVs and park-model homes No state rule Wyoming does not draw a line between a manufactured home and a recreational vehicle for these purposes, because it has no community tenancy law for either to sit inside or outside of. The general residential statute leaves out a mobile home lot and recreational property rented on an occasional basis in the same clause, treating both the same way. Running the other direction, the lot lessor's lien uses the motor vehicle code's definition of a house trailer, which reaches any trailer or semitrailer designed, constructed and equipped as a dwelling place and equipped for use as a conveyance on streets and highways, so a travel trailer on a rented space appears to fall within it. Nothing in Wyoming law mentions park-model homes. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 29-7-301 (e); W.S. 31-5-102 (a)(xv)(A)
Local rent regulation of park lots No statute addresses local regulation of lot rents Wyoming law neither authorizes nor forbids a city or county to regulate lot rents, and no Wyoming locality is known to have tried. The general powers Wyoming grants city and town governing bodies run to property, licensing, taxation and business regulation and say nothing about the rent charged for housing, and the statutes on counties and on local powers are equally silent. No Wyoming statute uses the term rent control or otherwise addresses the amount of rent charged for private residential property. W.S. 15-1-103 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)

B. Lot rent, fees and utilities

Rule Wyoming law Source
Notice before a lot-rent increase No state rule No Wyoming statute requires any notice before lot rent goes up. The lease sets the rent and the terms on which it may change, and Wyoming supplies no gap-filling notice rule for a periodic tenancy the way most states do. Where a lease runs for a stated term, the rent cannot be changed during the term without the resident's agreement, and at the end of the term the tenancy does not renew by itself: Wyoming recognizes no implied renewal, and a resident who stays on holds only as a tenant by sufferance. W.S. 34-2-128; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
How often rent may be raised No state rule Wyoming does not limit how often lot rent may be raised. There is no minimum interval between increases and no once-a-year rule, so the lease governs. Because the state also sets no notice period, both the timing and the frequency of an increase are matters of contract. W.S. 34-2-128; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Statewide limit on lot-rent increases No state rule There is no ceiling on lot-rent increases anywhere in Wyoming law. No statute sets a percentage, a formula or an index for lot rent, and no state statute either permits or bars a city or county from setting one. What governs the amount is the lease. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 15-1-103 (a)
How a resident can challenge an increase No state rule Wyoming offers no way to challenge a lot-rent increase. There is no mediation step, no petition to a state board, no escrow procedure and no reasonableness standard a court could apply, and no agency takes complaints about these tenancies. A resident's options are to accept the increase or to end the tenancy. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 1-43-101 (a)(ii)
Entrance fee prohibited No state rule Nothing in Wyoming law prohibits or limits an entrance fee for a lot. The lease sets what may be charged at move-in, and the general deposit and disclosure rules that apply to ordinary rentals do not reach a mobile home lot. Charges owed under the lease matter in one respect: the lot lessor's lien on the home secures unpaid rent and other unpaid charges due under the terms or conditions of the rental agreement. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Exit or removal fee prohibited No state rule Wyoming does not prohibit an exit or removal fee, and the one statutory rule about removal costs runs against the resident. Where a lot lessor enforces its lien and removes the home from the site, reasonable charges for the removal and for storage may be assessed against the home. Any fee charged on a voluntary move-out is governed by the lease. W.S. 29-7-301 (b); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Undisclosed fees uncollectible No state rule No Wyoming statute makes an undisclosed charge uncollectible on a lot. The general rule that a rental agreement must state whether any part of a deposit is nonrefundable applies to a residential rental unit, which leaves out a mobile home lot. The practical effect of the lease is the other way around: the lot lessor's lien secures charges due under the terms or conditions of the rental agreement, so what is written into the agreement is what the lien covers. W.S. 1-21-1207; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 29-7-301 (a)
Utility billing rules No state rule No Wyoming statute regulates how a community owner bills residents for utilities. The duty to keep electrical, heating and plumbing systems operational with hot and cold running water applies to a residential rental unit, and a mobile home lot is outside that definition. The public utilities title says nothing about mobile home communities or about reselling service to residents, so billing is a matter for the lease. W.S. 1-21-1202 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Submetering required or regulated No state rule Nothing in Wyoming law requires individual meters on lots or sets rules for billing from them. No statute addresses how service is measured or divided among spaces, and the state's public utilities provisions do not mention mobile home communities. Whether a community submeters, and how it charges from the readings, is left to the lease. W.S. 1-21-1202 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Lot security deposit rules No state rule Wyoming's deposit rules do not apply to a mobile home lot, and this is the clearest consequence of the state's exclusion. For an ordinary rental the owner must return the balance of the deposit with a written itemization of any deductions within thirty days of the end of the tenancy, or within fifteen days of receiving the renter's new address, whichever is later, and a renter may recover the full deposit and court costs if the owner unreasonably fails to comply. None of that reaches a rented lot, where the deposit, its use and its return are governed by the lease alone. There is no cap on the amount and no deadline for returning it. W.S. 1-21-1208 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)

C. Lease, rules and disclosure

Rule Wyoming law Source
Written lease Not required A lot tenancy in Wyoming does not have to be in writing. Only an agreement for the lease of real estate for more than one year is void unless it or a memorandum of it is in writing and signed by the party to be charged, so a month-to-month or one-year lot tenancy may be oral. Writing matters at the other end of the tenancy: a lease that has expired by its own limitation cannot be renewed except by express contract in writing signed by the parties, whether the original lease was written or spoken, and no other tenancy than one by sufferance exists after the original lease ends. W.S. 1-23-105 (a)(v); W.S. 34-2-129
Minimum lease term that must be offered No state rule No community owner in Wyoming has to offer a lease of any particular length, and Wyoming goes further than most states in the other direction. Many states presume a lease of real property runs a year unless the parties say otherwise; Wyoming does the opposite, providing that the relations of landlord and tenant do not arise by implication or operation of law except a tenancy by sufferance, and that a term created by lease carries no implied renewal for any period whatever. So no term is offered by default and none is required. W.S. 34-2-128; W.S. 34-2-129
Notice to end a tenancy without cause No state rule Wyoming sets no notice period for ending a lot tenancy without cause. A tenancy for a stated term simply ends when the term runs out, with no implied renewal and no notice required, and a resident who stays on holds only as a tenant by sufferance. For a tenancy with no stated term the state supplies no statutory notice at all, so what notice is due comes from the lease and the common law. The three-day notice to quit that appears in Wyoming law is not a termination notice: it is the step a party must take before filing a forcible entry and detainer action, served at least three days before the action begins. W.S. 34-2-128; W.S. 1-21-1003
Notice before park rules change No state rule Wyoming has no community-rules regime and no notice period for changing park rules. No statute requires rules to be written, given to residents, applied uniformly or changed on notice. Whether the community may change its rules mid-tenancy, and on what notice, depends entirely on the lease. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 34-2-128
Disclosure document None required No disclosure document has to be given to a lot resident in Wyoming. The state prescribes no lease form, no summary of rights and no statement of community rules, charges or utility arrangements. The one disclosure duty in the general residential statute, that a rental agreement state whether any part of a deposit is nonrefundable, applies to a residential rental unit and a mobile home lot is outside that term. W.S. 1-21-1207; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Residents' right to meet and organize No state rule Wyoming protects no right for residents to meet or organize. There is no affirmative right to hold meetings, hand out information or use common areas for that purpose, and no protection against retaliation for forming or joining a residents' organization. Wyoming has no landlord-tenant retaliation statute of any kind, so nothing protects organizing indirectly either. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 1-21-1205 (a)
Owner entry onto the lot or into the home No state rule No Wyoming statute governs when a community owner may come onto a rented lot or into the home. The general residential statute addresses access from the other side, making it a prohibited act for a renter to unreasonably deny entry to the owner for repairs, inspection or showing the unit, but that provision applies to a residential rental unit and a mobile home lot is excluded from that term. Notice and reasonable hours are therefore matters for the lease. W.S. 1-21-1205 (a)(iii); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Retaliation prohibited No state rule Wyoming has no statute barring a landlord from retaliating against a tenant, on a lot or anywhere else. A resident who complains to a public authority, asks for repairs or organizes with neighbors has no statutory protection from a rent increase, a service cutoff or a notice to leave. The one narrow protection in Wyoming law comes from the Wyoming Safe Homes Act, which says a landlord may not end a tenancy based solely on a tenant's or household member's status as a victim of domestic abuse or sexual violence and may not be waived by any lease; that act speaks of renting or leasing a dwelling and does not name a lot. W.S. 1-21-1303 (c); W.S. 1-21-1304; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)

D. Termination and eviction

Rule Wyoming law Source
Just cause required to end a tenancy No Wyoming does not require a reason to end a lot tenancy. A tenancy for a stated term ends when the term expires, and Wyoming recognizes no implied renewal, so nothing has to be shown to let it lapse. Where the resident stays on, a forcible entry and detainer action may be brought against tenants holding over their terms or after a failure to pay rent for three days after it is due, once the party bringing the action has served a written notice to leave at least three days beforehand. No statute lists causes, limits the community owner's reasons or requires an opportunity to cure. W.S. 1-21-1002 (a)(i); W.S. 1-21-1003; W.S. 34-2-128
Grounds for termination No state rule Wyoming lists no grounds for ending a lot tenancy, because no reason is required. The eviction statute instead lists the situations in which a possession action may be brought, and the one that concerns tenancies covers tenants holding over their terms or failing to pay rent for three days after it is due. That is a description of when the courthouse is open, not a list of causes a community owner must prove. W.S. 1-21-1002 (a)(i); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Notice for nonpayment of lot rent No state rule No statute written for lots sets a notice period for unpaid lot rent, and the general eviction rule supplies the only timetable. A possession action may be brought against a tenant after a failure to pay rent for three days after it is due, and before starting the action the party must serve a written notice to leave the premises at least three days beforehand, delivered to the tenant or left at the usual place of abode or business. Neither step is a right to cure: Wyoming does not require the community owner to accept late rent, and paying within the notice period does not by statute stop the case. W.S. 1-21-1002 (a)(i); W.S. 1-21-1003
Notice for a rule or lease violation No state rule Wyoming sets no notice period and no cure period for a lease or rule violation on a lot. The only statutory step is the notice that precedes any forcible entry and detainer action, which must be served at least three days before the action is commenced. What counts as a breach, and what warning is due before the community owner acts on it, comes from the lease. W.S. 1-21-1003; W.S. 1-21-1002 (a)
Repeat-violation rule No state rule Nothing in Wyoming law treats a repeated violation differently from a first one. There is no rule allowing a shorter notice or removing a cure right for a second breach within a set period, because the state sets no notice or cure requirements to begin with. Any repeat-violation term is a matter of contract. W.S. 1-21-1002 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Time to sell or remove the home after termination No state rule Wyoming gives a resident no period to sell or move the home after a tenancy ends. The one timetable in the statute runs to the community owner instead: where a resident has defaulted in payments under the written rental or lease agreement, the lot lessor has a lien on the home for unpaid rent and other charges, gives notice by posting it conspicuously on the home, and at any time after thirty days from that notice may remove the home from the site, assessing reasonable removal and storage charges against it. One limit protects the resident: the home may not be removed under that section while the resident still occupies it, and in that case the lessor must go to court instead. W.S. 29-7-301 (b); W.S. 29-7-301 (c)
Abandoned-home procedure Yes One statute deals with a home left standing on a rented space, and it is a lien rather than an abandonment procedure by name. A lessor renting space for a house trailer site has a lien on the home for unpaid rent and other charges owed under the agreement, effective once the resident has defaulted in payments under the written agreement. The lessor posts written notice conspicuously on the home; thirty days after notice the home may be removed from the site, with reasonable removal and storage charges assessed against it, and the lien keeps its priority over every other lien except a previously perfected security interest. The home may not be removed this way while the resident still occupies it. The lien is enforced and foreclosed the way a security agreement is enforced under Wyoming's commercial code, and the statute has no separate notice to the home's owner or lienholders and no title-clearing step. The state's general abandoned-property procedure for rentals does not apply, because a mobile home lot is outside the term residential rental unit. W.S. § 29-7-301 (a)-(d); W.S. § 1-21-1210; W.S. § 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Mediation or dispute-resolution requirement No state rule No mediation or other dispute-resolution step is required before an eviction or any other lot dispute in Wyoming. The state has a general mediation statute, but it defines mediation as a voluntary process in which an impartial third person helps parties in conflict reach a settlement and sets rules of confidentiality and privilege; it does not require anyone to mediate. The route for these disputes is the circuit court. W.S. 1-43-101 (a)(ii); W.S. 1-21-1001

E. Closure and change of use

Rule Wyoming law Source
Notice before closure or change of use No state rule Wyoming requires no notice before a community closes or the land is put to another use. No statute sets a closure period, and the one provision written for these lot rentals concerns the lessor's lien on the home for unpaid rent and says nothing about closing. A resident's warning of a closure is whatever the lease provides, which for a tenancy with no stated term may be nothing at all. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Variants (by trigger or park size) No state rule There are no closure variants to describe, because Wyoming sets no closure notice at all. Nothing turns on the trigger for the closure, the size of the community or whether the land is being redeveloped, condemned or simply sold. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Relocation payment required No state rule No one has to pay a Wyoming resident to move when a community closes. There is no relocation payment, no state relocation fund and no trust financed by registration or transfer fees. Moving costs fall on the homeowner. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Relocation amounts No state rule There are no relocation amounts, because Wyoming requires no relocation payment on a closure. No figure appears anywhere in Wyoming law for moving a home out of a community. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Who pays relocation None required No one pays for relocation in Wyoming. The state imposes no closure payment on the community owner and operates no fund of its own, so the homeowner bears the cost of moving the home or of losing it. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Notice to a government body on closure No state rule No state or local body has to be told when a Wyoming community closes, and no agency has a role in these tenancies. Land-use approval is a separate question: county subdivision law counts the creation of a mobile home court as a subdivision of land, so changing how the land is laid out or used can require going back to the county, but that is a planning requirement and not a notice to residents or a housing agency. W.S. 18-5-302 (a)(vii); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)

F. Sale of the park

Rule Wyoming law Source
Residents must be told the park is for sale No state rule Residents in Wyoming have no right to be told the community is for sale or has been sold. No statute requires notice before a sale, at closing or afterward, and there is no rule transferring deposits or naming the new owner. A sale of the land does not by itself end an existing lease, but a resident may learn of it only when the rent is directed elsewhere. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
What triggers the notice No state rule Nothing triggers a sale notice in Wyoming, because no sale notice is required. Neither listing the property, accepting an offer, signing a contract nor completing the transfer sets any duty toward residents running. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Residents' purchase right None required Residents have no right to buy the community in Wyoming. There is no right of first refusal, no opportunity to negotiate, no notice of a pending sale and no recognition of a residents' organization for this purpose. Nothing stops residents from making an offer, but the owner is under no duty to consider it or to wait. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Time for residents to respond No state rule There is no response window, because Wyoming gives residents no purchase right and requires no notice of a sale. No period runs for residents to form an organization, make an offer or match one. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Resident-association threshold No state rule No threshold exists, because no Wyoming statute recognizes a residents' organization for the purpose of buying the community or for any other purpose in these tenancies. Residents may organize, but doing so carries no statutory standing and no protection. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Transfers exempt from the sale rules No state rule There are no exempt transfers to list, because Wyoming imposes no rules on the sale of a community. Every transfer, whether an arm's length sale, a transfer to a family member, a foreclosure or a transfer between related entities, is governed by the ordinary law of conveyances. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Residents may assign the right to a nonprofit or municipality No state rule There is no purchase right for Wyoming residents to assign to a nonprofit organization or a municipality, because residents have no right to buy the community in the first place. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Penalty for violating the sale rules No state rule No penalty attaches to a community sale in Wyoming, because there are no sale rules to break. There is no damages formula, no multiple of rent and no forfeiture, and no agency that could impose one. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)

G. The resident's home

Rule Wyoming law Source
Right to sell the home in place No state rule No Wyoming statute protects a resident's right to sell the home where it stands. Whether the home may stay on the lot after a sale, and whether the buyer may take the space, depends on the lease and on the community owner's agreement, since an expired lease cannot be renewed except by express written contract signed by the parties. A buyer also takes the home subject to the lot lessor's lien for unpaid rent and charges, which by statute has priority over all other liens except a security interest perfected earlier. W.S. 34-2-129; W.S. 29-7-301 (a)
Park may not take a commission on the sale No state rule Nothing in Wyoming law stops a community owner from taking a commission or a transfer fee when a resident sells the home. No statute addresses charges tied to a sale of a home on a rented lot, so the lease governs. W.S. 29-7-301 (a); W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Park may screen the buyer No state rule No Wyoming statute says whether a community owner may screen the buyer of a resident's home, because no statute gives a buyer any claim on the lot. A new tenancy has to be agreed with the community owner, and Wyoming provides that no tenancy other than one by sufferance arises after the original lease ends unless created by express written contract, so screening is a matter of contract and of the owner's own standards. W.S. 34-2-129; W.S. 34-2-128
Buyer-approval standard and deadline No state rule Wyoming sets no standard and no deadline for approving a buyer as the new lot resident. There is no rule that consent may not be unreasonably withheld, no list of permitted screening criteria and no time limit for an answer. All of it comes from the lease. W.S. 34-2-129; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Home may not be rejected for age, size or style alone No state rule Nothing bars a Wyoming community owner from rejecting a home, or requiring it to be moved, because of its age, size or style. The state gives no right to sell the home in place from which such a limit could follow, and no statute regulates community standards for the homes on the lots. W.S. 34-2-129; W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv)
Park may require repairs before sale No state rule No Wyoming statute addresses repairs or upgrades demanded before a resident may sell the home. Because the state neither protects a sale in place nor limits what the community may require of a home on its lots, any condition of that kind comes from the lease and the community's rules. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 34-2-129
Right to post a For Sale sign No state rule Wyoming does not protect a for-sale sign on a home or a lot. No statute or state regulation addresses signs in a manufactured home community, so the community's own rules and the lease decide whether one may be posted and what it may look like. W.S. 1-21-1201 (a)(iv); W.S. 29-7-301 (a)

H. The eight federal lender protections — which ones Wyoming law already requires

Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac require eight tenant site lease protections in every manufactured housing community loan they buy. Where state law already requires a protection of every park, a resident has it whether or not the park has agency financing. Wyoming law requires 0 of 8. All 50 states are compared in our research study, including the 2018 federal survey baseline.

ProtectionWyoming lawBasis
One-year renewable lease term unless there is good cause for non-renewal Not required Neither limb is met. No Wyoming statute requires a lease term of any length to be offered on a lot, and none limits why a tenancy may end. Wyoming goes further than a simple silence: the relations of landlord and tenant do not arise by implication or operation of law except a tenancy by sufferance, and a term created by lease carries no implied renewal for any period whatever, so no yearly term arises by default either. (W.S. 34-2-128; W.S. 1-21-1002)
30-day written notice of rent increases Not required No statute requires any written notice before a lot-rent increase in Wyoming. The general residential statute that carries the state's rental rules leaves a mobile home lot outside its coverage, and Wyoming supplies no gap-filling rule requiring notice before the terms of a periodic tenancy change, so the lease alone decides what warning a resident gets. (W.S. 1-21-1201; W.S. 34-2-128)
5-day grace period for rent payments and the right to cure defaults on rent payments Not required Both limbs are missing. Wyoming allows a possession action once rent has gone unpaid for three days after it is due, which is shorter than a five-day grace period and is a precondition to suing rather than a bar on late fees, and no statute gives a resident the right to stop the case by paying within the notice period. The three-day written notice to leave that must precede the action is a procedural step, not a chance to cure. (W.S. 1-21-1002; W.S. 1-21-1003)
Right to sell the manufactured home without having to first relocate it out of the community Not required No Wyoming statute bars a community owner from requiring a home to be moved out when it is sold, and none grants a right to sell the home in place. The only statutory rule about a home leaving the lot runs the other way, allowing a lot lessor enforcing its lien for unpaid rent to remove the home from the site thirty days after posting notice, unless the resident still occupies it. (W.S. 29-7-301; W.S. 1-21-1201)
Right to sell the manufactured home in place within 30 days after eviction by the community owner Not required Wyoming gives a resident no period to sell the home in place after an eviction. Once a judgment of restitution is entered the court issues a writ at the plaintiff's request and, unless the resident appeals, the officer must carry it out within two days of receiving it, Sundays excepted; nothing sets aside time for a sale. (W.S. 1-21-1013; W.S. 1-21-1012)
Right to sublease or assign the pad site lease for the unexpired term to the new buyer of the home without unreasonable restraint Not required No Wyoming statute lets a buyer take over the remaining lot tenancy, and none holds the community owner to any standard in deciding. The state provides the opposite default: an expired lease cannot be renewed except by express contract in writing signed by the parties, and no tenancy other than one by sufferance exists after the original lease ends unless created that way. (W.S. 34-2-129; W.S. 34-2-128)
Right to post "For Sale" signs that comply with the community's rules Not required No Wyoming statute or state regulation protects a for-sale sign on a home or a lot. The general residential statute carries no sign provision and does not reach a mobile home lot in any event, so a community's own rules govern. (W.S. 1-21-1201; W.S. 29-7-301)
Right to receive at least 60 days' notice of a planned sale or closure of the community Not required Wyoming requires notice of neither a sale nor a closure. No statute obliges a community owner to tell residents that the property is on the market, under contract or sold, and none sets a period before the land may be put to another use; the single statute written for these lot rentals concerns the lessor's lien on the home and addresses neither event. (W.S. 29-7-301; W.S. 1-21-1201)
