Cal. Civ. Code § 38-12-201
Application of part 2.
Operative Text
(1) This part 2 applies only to manufactured homes as defined in section 42-1-102 (48.8). (2) Repealed.
Colorado Revised Statutes § 38-12-201 establishes the scope of Part 2 of the state's residential tenancies law, limiting its application exclusively to manufactured homes as that term is defined under the state's motor vehicle statutes at § 42-1-102(48.8). In other words, the protections, requirements, and rules contained in Part 2 do not extend to traditional apartments, site-built houses, or other rental housing types. A second subsection that previously appeared in this provision has been formally repealed and no longer carries legal effect.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Property owners and managers operating manufactured home communities in Colorado should be aware that § 38-12-201 confines Part 2's rules specifically to manufactured homes as defined by § 42-1-102(48.8), meaning these obligations do not apply to other rental property types they may own. Compliant operators of manufactured home communities generally familiarize themselves with the statutory definition to confirm which units fall within Part 2's coverage. Operators managing mixed portfolios should take care to distinguish which properties are subject to Part 2 and which are governed by other parts of Colorado landlord-tenant law.

If you live in a manufactured home in Colorado, § 38-12-201 confirms that Part 2 of the state's residential tenancies law was written specifically to cover your housing type, as defined under § 42-1-102(48.8). Tenants in manufactured homes can look to Part 2 for the rules and protections that apply to their tenancy, while understanding that residents of other housing types fall under different provisions. Tenants who are uncertain whether their home qualifies as a manufactured home under the statutory definition may find it helpful to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider familiar with Colorado housing law.
