You may appoint the park owner as your agent to sell or negotiate the sale of your manufactured home. To do this, you must sign a Manufactured Homes Form 9 - Selling authority
The park owner must not, under a selling authority, charge a fee for the agency that is more than the amount prescribed under the regulation. Currently, if the sale price is less than $18 000, the maximum fee is 5 per cent of the sale price. If the sale price is more than $18 000, the maximum fee is $900 plus 2.5 per cent of the sale price over $18 000.
They also cannot charge a fee for the agency if they were not the effective cause of the sale.
The Act also prohibits a park owner from engaging in fraudulent, misleading, harassing or unconscionable conduct when acting as a home owner´s selling agent to sell, or to negotiate the sale of a manufactured home.
