Dolores Goodell testified that she had been a park resident for twenty-two years, and that when she approached an area realtor to sell her mobile home, the realtor laughed at her when she revealed where it was. She decided to sell the home herself, and she and her daughter put out a sign and listed the home in a circular. When she first moved into the park, she had a lease, but it ran out and was not renewed. When she put her mobile home up for sale in January 1998, she tried to get a copy of the lease from defendants, but they never sent her one until she called the Attorney General’s Office. After receiving the lease, Goodell sent defendants several certified letters over the next few months to notify them of prospective purchasers. She testified that in each case she had to wait thirty days for a response, and each applicant was denied. This happened four times, until, in mid June, defendants finally accepted one of the prospective purchasers. Originally, she was asking $5000 for her mobile home, and she had purchasers willing to pay that amount, but she ended up selling it for $2000.
