Operative Text

N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 205-A: § 205-A:14
This chapter shall not be construed to affect unfair trade practices otherwise actionable at common law or under other statutes of this state.
Source: Legislative text reproduced verbatim
Plain English

Section 205-A:14 of New Hampshire's manufactured housing law makes clear that the chapter does not eliminate or limit any legal claims based on unfair trade practices that already exist under common law or other New Hampshire statutes. In other words, the protections and remedies available outside of Chapter 205-A remain fully intact alongside it. This provision functions as a savings clause, ensuring that the chapter's rules operate in addition to, rather than instead of, other applicable legal frameworks.

For Property Managers

Under N.H. Rev. Stat. Ann. § 205-A:14, operators of manufactured housing communities should be aware that compliance with Chapter 205-A alone does not shield them from liability under other New Hampshire laws or common law doctrines addressing unfair trade practices. Compliant operators generally review their business practices against the full range of applicable state consumer protection and trade practice standards, not just the requirements of Chapter 205-A. Consulting legal counsel familiar with New Hampshire's broader consumer protection landscape is a common step for operators seeking to understand the full scope of their obligations.

For Tenants

Section 205-A:14 preserves tenants' rights to pursue claims for unfair trade practices under New Hampshire common law or other state statutes, even when those claims arise in a manufactured housing context governed by Chapter 205-A. This means that a landlord's conduct may be actionable on multiple legal grounds simultaneously, and tenants are not limited to remedies found solely within Chapter 205-A. Tenant-rights organizations and legal aid services in New Hampshire can help residents understand what additional legal avenues may be available based on the specific conduct at issue.
