Mobile home rental.
Fla. Stats. Ch. 723 governs mobile hm. lot rentals. What you describe is a residential rental. Fl. Stats. Ch. 83 deals with this type of rental. Certainly you can rent it. Whether you need a license depends on whether this is a business or not. I would definitely have a written agreement and insurance on my property.
