This legislation mandates that the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) conduct a comprehensive investigation into the pricing of pad sites within manufactured home communities. The investigation aims to determine if prices are being manipulated or artificially increased through price gouging practices . A report on these findings must be submitted to Congress and made publicly available within 270 days of the Act's enactment. This report will include a long-term strategy for HUD and Congress to address price manipulation, utilizing data on race, gender, and socioeconomic status, and will analyze how institutional investors impact seniors and underserved communities. Furthermore, the bill directs HUD to monitor purchases of manufactured homes and pad sites across housing markets. If any single purchaser, particularly an institutional investor , acquires more than 2,500 homes or pad sites in a market area since January 1, 2015, HUD must investigate for potential price gouging, excessive rent increases, or failure to provide utilities. A subsequent report on these investigations must also be provided to Congress and the public.
