I know they are trying to update the law with the choice act because the Dodd-Frank has had unintended consequences that for some reason the Consumer Finance Protection Bureau wont rectify...Former Congressman Barney Frank, who co-sponsored the legislation, said he was “regretful to realize” its negative impact not long after Dodd-Frank became the law of the land.In a 2011 letter to a constituent, Frank wrote:“I do not think it is necessary to include manufactured housing as part of our effort to prevent abusive mortgage practices, and I am now working with my staff to see if we can find a way to make a change that would deal with the problem you correctly point out… “

Might be tougher to blame them for watching this if it got stopped up with leaves that were not their fault.Now if they stuffed a rag in the drain (in the lease or not) I would think they would be negligent and be responsible for this repair.Might be best to make this as idiot proof as humanly possible to prevent or minimize issues with this.Maybe also setup an inspection in the fall after leaves have fallen to check this specifically along with rest of property.
