California Mobile Home Park Management Co.

California Mobile Home Park Management Co. provides management services to mobilehome and recreational vehicle park owners in Southern California, and also manages apartments and office complexes. It has done so since 1987.

Engagements start by reviewing the property's current condition and the owner's objectives, then setting a long-term strategy for the asset. The company trains and supervises on-site managers and maintenance staff, supplies the forms and procedures they work from, handles resident relations and new resident interviews, prepares rent increase schedules and legal notices, keeps the books and produces monthly and customized financial reports, runs preventive maintenance programs and 24-hour utility emergency service, and provides in-house legal support that coordinates with outside counsel. Compliance work covers Title 25, the Mobilehome Residency Law, the Gas Pipeline Safety Act, health and safety codes, pool and spa requirements and Public Utilities Commission regulations.

Its service region is Santa Barbara, Ventura, Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties. The company says it has installed over 1800 new mobilehomes in the properties it manages since 1987, working through established dealers and manufacturers, and it carries errors and omissions, employee theft, employment practices liability, business owner's and workers' compensation coverage.

The management fee averages about 4% of the property's gross income and is negotiable based on the extent of service required, gross monthly income, the number of homesites and structures, whether the property is in a rent control jurisdiction, the qualifications of on-site personnel and the condition of the property. Special services such as warehouseman's lien sales, court appearances, rule and lease rewrites and extra legal notices are quoted separately and performed only with written owner authorization. No office address is published on the site.
