Operative Text
Exemptions. No mobile home park operated by the State or the Federal Government, or park land owned by either, and no trailer park operated for the use of recreational campers or travel trailers shall be subject to the provisions of this Act.
Under 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 745, Illinois's Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Rights Act does not apply to every residential park situation. Specifically, mobile home parks operated or owned by the State of Illinois or the federal government fall outside the Act's coverage. Similarly, trailer parks whose primary purpose is serving recreational campers or travel trailers are also excluded from the Act's protections and requirements.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators and owners reviewing their obligations under 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 745 should first confirm whether their park falls within one of the stated exemptions. Government-operated or government-owned mobile home parks, as well as recreational camper and travel trailer parks, are not governed by this Act's provisions. Operators of parks that do not qualify for an exemption generally ensure their practices align with the full requirements of the Act.

Residents of mobile home parks in Illinois benefit from understanding whether their park is covered by the Act or falls under an exemption established at 765 Ill. Comp. Stat. 745. If a park is government-operated or government-owned, or is primarily designed for recreational campers or travel trailers, the Act's tenant protections do not apply. Tenants uncertain about their park's status may find it helpful to contact a local tenant-rights organization or consult with a legal aid office to better understand which rules govern their situation.
