Do I have to pay a co-op rent fee for the month between closing and moving in? ?

Question

I am purchasing a mobile home in New Hampshire. I am due to close on Aug. 29th. I won't be moving in until October 1st. The mobile home park is a Co-Op. Do I have to pay the Co-Op fee for the month of September, even though I won't be living there? Is there a legal precedent? If so, please site the legality so I can use it to my benefit. Thanks.

Answer 1

You have to pay it.  Living there or not it it is your lot and your responsibility.

Answer 2

As of August 29, you will own the home and be liable for all expenses incurred.  You may even have to pay a pro-rated amount of the rent fee for the few days in August you own the home.  Considering the home is using the space, this is only right.
