Under Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0185, Nevada law defines a 'tenant' in the manufactured housing context as the owner of a manufactured home situated on a lot within a manufactured home park. This definition shapes who qualifies for the rights and protections established throughout Chapter 118B. It is a foundational term that distinguishes manufactured home owners from conventional renters in other housing contexts.

For Property Managers

Operators of manufactured home parks in Nevada should be aware that Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0185 defines the 'tenant' they are dealing with as the owner of the manufactured home itself, not merely an occupant. This distinction affects how park operators apply the rules of Chapter 118B when managing lot rental agreements and resolving disputes. Compliant park operators generally apply this definition consistently when determining who holds tenant rights under the chapter.

Nev. Rev. Stat. ch. 118B § 118B.0185 establishes that, under Nevada's manufactured housing law, a 'tenant' is specifically the owner of a manufactured home located on a lot in a manufactured home park. This means the protections and rights found throughout Chapter 118B are tied to manufactured home ownership on a park lot. Individuals who believe they qualify under this definition may explore their rights through Nevada's tenant-rights organizations or by consulting the relevant state agency.
