What do I do if buy mobile home and find out no title?

Posted on: 07th Jun, 2011 09:11 pm
I purchased a 14x70 mobile home from fellow. when paid off he informs me the title is lost. I have lived in the trailer for 11 years no problems. IMy circumstances have changed and i need to sell it, but cant withut title. All previous owners are not locatable or whereabouts known. How can I get title as lost or abandoned without having to get previous owners. Stumped and confused!!!
Hi Bigdog,

I will suggest you to contact the DMV (Department of Motor Vehicles) and check out if they can offer you a copy of the title. You should even speak to a real estate attorney and take his opinion in this matter. He will also be able to guide you better in this matter.

I suspect a real estate attorney wouldn't be a great deal of help if the mobile home, being titled, is considered personal property. The Motor Vehicle Department would certainly seem to be the most efficient avenue to pursue.
