A questioner writes to “Anne” of the democratandchronicle.com in Rochester, New York, saying when she and her husband sold their manufactured home in a community and asked the community manager for the return of their security deposit, he replied they had to produce all three years of receipts because they paid with a money order. “Anne” says New York state law requires owners of MHCs to issue a receipt for each and every payment not made with a personal check. MHProNews.com understands the community owner may be slapped with a complaint by the state attorney general’s office; but also, laws vary regarding this issue from state to state. ##
