Plain English

Under Mich. Admin. Code R. 125.2002 (Rule 1002), manufactured housing communities are prohibited from making false claims in their advertising about the facilities or physical conditions of the community. If a feature, amenity, or physical attribute does not actually exist, the community may not represent in any advertisement that it does. This rule applies to any form of advertising and covers both individual facilities and the overall physical state of the community.

For Property Managers

Operators of manufactured housing communities subject to Mich. Admin. Code R. 125.2002 are expected to ensure that all advertising materials—whether print, digital, or otherwise—accurately reflect only the facilities and physical conditions that genuinely exist on the property. A compliant operator routinely reviews marketing content to remove or correct any claims about amenities, infrastructure, or site conditions that are no longer accurate or were never present. Keeping advertising current with the actual state of the community is a standard practice under this rule.

For Tenants

Mich. Admin. Code R. 125.2002 gives prospective and current residents a basis to challenge a community that advertised facilities or physical conditions that do not actually exist. If a tenant believes a community's advertising misrepresented its facilities or conditions, general enforcement paths include filing a complaint with the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs or consulting a tenant-rights organization familiar with manufactured housing law. Documenting the original advertisements alongside the actual conditions of the community can be relevant when pursuing any such complaint.
