The South Carolina Order Concerning Derelict Mobile Home is a state law that requires owners of derelict mobile homes to take action to repair or remove their units. The legislation, which was enacted in 2005, applies to all mobile homes in the state that are over five years old and have been deemed “derelict” by the state. A derelict mobile home is defined as one that is not properly maintained, has deteriorated in condition, or is no longer fit for human habitation. Under the South Carolina Order Concerning Derelict Mobile Home, owners of derelict mobile homes must take one of the following actions: 1. Repair the home to meet the minimum housing standards set by the state. 2. Remove the home from the premises. 3. Enter into an agreement with a local government to have the mobile home repaired or removed. Failure to comply with these requirements may result in the owner being fined, the mobile home being impounded, or both.
