    A French drain should take care of the problem. But where is all the water coming from in the first place? That really needs to be handled too. The mobile home park should pay for this unless the cause of the water is some how connected to you.

    Is your home lot on the lowest ground in the park? A french drain will only work if it can pitch to a lower point. In which case you may need to excavate a deep catch basin or drainage pond to collect the run off.
