Probably. It would depend upon the rules and regulations of the mobile home park. You need to sit down and read and review the rules. You cannot skirt the rules by subleasing your unit without being in compliance which may include having a tenant screened and approved the same way you had to be. Sub-tenants are generally bound by the same rules and regulations as the original tenant.
