We rented our double wide manufactured residence for $1000 a month through a rental management company.

Remember for most major manufacturers of battery operated tools, the batteries are interchangeable.

Currently, I only have rental income from renting individual rooms to roommates.Does the statewide rent control apply to the two room renters in my manufactured home?

Obviously that must be an exaggeration, but many of my friends are fighting them and I've heard a few stories of chewed up wires in vehicles because the rats are attracted to a certain type of wire sheathing that some auto manufacturers use.

I would ask for more security at the very least.That said - the good news is that with the tech industry growing in Durham (just today, software/manufacturing company Prescient announced it is moving from Denver to Durham) and the city getting younger all the time, I think the rental market is primed to get a whole lot better in the coming years.

Otherwise, they will start manufacturing supposed mold issues or pest issues, and they may even cause damage and then say you're neglecting the property and it's uninhabitable and call the building inspector, etc.So, maybe there's a middle ground. 

User error is likely not the landlords fault, or the manufacturer's fault."

If you trip over your shoes laces, you can't sue the shoe lace manufacturer for damages unless you have real damages, like you knocked out your tooth.You also have to show mitigation against your own damages.
