What is a residential park?
A residential park is an area of land that includes:
- land (sites) available for rent under a site agreement
- common areas
- facilities for the comfort, convenience or enjoyment of residents.
Manufactured homes are found in various types of residential parks:
- mixed-use – the park may have a mixture of manufactured homes, caravan sites, tents and holiday cabins, which offer short and long-term accommodation
- purpose-built – these are only made up of manufactured homes exclusively and are often targeted at the over-50s age group
Residential parks are managed by a park owner or manager.
