Manufactured Home Relocation Trust Fund

The Manufactured Home Relocation Trust Fund provides compensation to participating manufactured homeowners if all or part of their manufactured home park closes.

Homeowners pay the park owner $15 per year. The park owner sends that to Minnesota Housing as we administer the fund.

When a Park Closes

If a park is closing, the park owner will notify us. The local municipality will appoint a neutral third party to review and approve homeowner requests to receive funds.

If you are a homeowner requesting funds, you need to submit:

A copy of the closure letter
Documentation showing property taxes are paid
Contract for moving costs (if home can be moved)
Certificate of title with release on all liens (if home cannot be moved)

Once the request is approved, we will issue payment to you or the movers.
