You're not a resident. Your a flipper or landlord. Maybe the park has had enough of investors and wants neither.

Maybe so, it didn't seem to be an issue and they knew my intentions when I put my application in, and they didn't say it had to be owner occupied. There are several other investors in that park. So you are saying that the statute does not apply to me because I don't plan on being a resident?
But the law you are trying to use would only apply to residents.
There is no differentiation in the law between a resident and a resident that rents out the home.
What is the legal definition of a resident and does it change from state to state?
Well, I would not define you as a "resident" either. I would define you as an owner and potential landlord. I would say that the law you are talking about would apply to anyone you wished to sell or lease the home to. Nevertheless, I think that you could probably use that law if you had to actually sue the park owner.
However, I do think its probably time to have a serious discussion with the owner of the park. It does not have to be a hostile discussion, but you need to let them know that if you are going to have to move the homes, which you absolutely prefer not to do, that you need to know that. You don't want to have problems getting your tenants approved to live in the park, and that is apparently a risk at this point since they are being so slow with you.
Also, considering the fact that you have mobile homes in 8 other parks it might be time for you to explore the possibility of opening a park of your own, and moving all of your units there.
