The actual manufactured home belongs to you and you pay rent on the lot. If the owner of the mobile home park doesn't like someone, can they have a "restraining order" against that person even though that person has never harmed the landlord? Then, if you do get caught socializing with that person, is it legal for the landlord to threaten you with eviction? What can be done if you are threatened that way?

What kind of person are we talking about here?
If we're talking about a drug dealer or prostitute, yes. Your landlord could kick you out.
If it's just a friend, then no. Once it becomes personal, your landlord can't force you to get off the property.

If the landlord has never been hurt or terrorized by this person I don't think he or she would even be able to obtain a restraining order. they don't just hand them out left and right.
and the landlord has no business telling you who you can and can't socialize with. that is totally up to you.
as long as you pay your rent on the space, and you own the home I don't see any valid reason the landlord could keep someone from visiting you in your own home. just because he or she doesn't like the person is not a legitimate reason to keep someone away.
you could probably contact a lawyer and get a little free legal advice.
Good luck.

well, if they own the property, they can have unwanted visitors removed from the property.
Im just curious, how does the landlord know who is visiting you?
I do know that if the unwanted guest is a felon or a known sexual predator or drug user, you can be evicted..
its a tough situation with many factors that could cause you to be in the wrong or the landlord in the wrong..
I would move, a similiar situation happened to me 10 years ago when I owned a nmobile home and rented a lot from another person..I ended up selling my mobile home over getting evicted..
Good Luck, and I would make an appointment with the local police to find out the exact laws and stipulations in your area..

depends on why your landlord has the issue. no court is going to allow a restraining order just because the restrainor "doesn't like" the restrainee. there has to be a legitimate reason - threat of bodily harm, damage to property, etc. maybe your landlord has received complaints from your neighbors about your friend. your landlord does have a say if your friend is disturbing your neighbors or damaging the property. most cities have noise ordinances, for example. if you're in breach, you're the one at fault. if that's the case, correct it now before you have to deal with the police and court. if that's not the case, contact your local police via their non-emergency number and ask them directly what your rights are.

Unless stated in the lease or rental agreement they most definetly can not. It is your home and your property as long as you have paid the rent. Your guests are your guests. Even if they owned the mobile home they still wouldn't have any say-so over who you can and can not have over. If you rent a car, could they tell you that Joe Schmoe can't ride. No! Same principal applies to renting and leasing property. It is yours to do so as you please unless otherwise stated with stipulations describing otherwise. Be sure to read to lease or rental agreement before you politely tell him he has no say so. However it being his property he does have the upper hand because it is his and unless there is a lease signed he can demand the property back with an notice giving you a time period. Hope this helps. Good luck.
