Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1450 et seq. § 76-1480
Failure to disclose; effect.
Operative Text
A person who fails to disclose as required by section 76-1479 shall be deemed an agent of the landlord for the purpose of: (1) Service of process and receiving and receipting for notices and demands; and (2) Performing the obligations of the landlord under the Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Act and rental agreement.
Nebraska law under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1480 establishes a legal consequence for any person who manages or controls a mobile home rental property but fails to make the disclosures required by § 76-1479. That person is automatically treated as the landlord's agent for two key purposes: receiving legal notices and service of process, and carrying out the landlord's duties under the Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Act and any rental agreement. This rule ensures that tenants and courts always have an identifiable party who can be reached and held responsible, even when ownership or management information has not been properly disclosed.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Under Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1480, property owners and managers operating mobile home communities in Nebraska are expected to make all disclosures required by § 76-1479, such as identifying the owner and any authorized agents. Compliant operators typically ensure that written disclosure of management contacts is provided to tenants at or before the start of a tenancy and kept current throughout. Failing to do so can result in an on-site manager or other undisclosed person being treated by law as the landlord's agent for receiving legal notices and fulfilling landlord obligations—an outcome that can create unintended legal exposure for those individuals.

Neb. Rev. Stat. § 76-1480 provides an important protection for mobile home tenants when a landlord has not made the disclosures required by § 76-1479. If the person managing or controlling the property failed to disclose their role, that person is legally treated as the landlord's agent, meaning tenants may be able to serve legal notices or process on that person and hold them responsible for landlord obligations under the Mobile Home Landlord and Tenant Act. Tenants who believe required disclosures were not made may wish to consult a tenant-rights organization or legal aid provider to understand how § 76-1480 might apply to their situation.
