The owner of three mobile home communities is being sued by the Delaware Attorney General’s office.
The 17 page lawsuit charges that Hometown America Communities pressured tenants into giving up their rights.
The residents of the communities in Kent and Sussex counties received rent increase notices but were offered a discount if they waived their right to a legal challenge.
Attorney General Matt Denn called the practice – reprehensible.
The communities included Barclay Farms in Camden, Angola Beach Estates in Lewes and Rehoboth Bay in Rehoboth.
The Wilmington News Journal reports there was no immediate comment from the company about the lawsuit.
