Do you have any advise on how we can expedite this process. Before bothering, I took a minute to scan to see if maybe my question was already answered- no luck. Thank you for actually responding to people. The majority of times on these types of sites – you never receive any response which is frustrating.
If you have any follow-up questions or concerns please never hesitate to write back. With that said the government is slow and 2 to 3 weeks is very short in some areas around the country. In California there is around a six month to nine month waiting period for you to get your title after you transfer it from buyer to seller. In some areas you can go to the DMV and walk out with a new title the same day. With that said you should be able to call your states title transfer department to ask them how things are going and if they have sent off the new title yet.
Correct Title, Incorrect Owner.
Thank you so much for reaching out and connecting. I regret to hear about this seller out of state jerking you around and not providing title. This may be because they do not actually have the title, or perhaps something else a bit more malicious.
When a bank is shut down or people are in your exact situation, the process will vary from state to state. In some states you are able to send a certified letter or a specific form to the current lender’s address on file. Whether that address exists anymore or not if the letters filled out or comes back nondeliverable you can use this as proof that the bank has shut down. And in some states there is no process besides getting an attorney and going in front of the judge to receive a judgment and force the DMV to print you a new title that is free and clear of liens. While this is not a magic bullet answer I hope it does help some endpoints you in the right direction moving forward.
Don't Let Mobile Homes Cause You Trouble
My church gave me $1000 to file bankruptcy. I wanted to give the trailer to the finance company and move back to my home state. I did not have money to rent an apartment or pay moving expenses so I went to a local social service organization. A few months later we signed a lease for an apartment.
For this reason the home cannot easily be moved and you can sell some interest with the use of a “bill of sale”. You will have to disclose all of this to the buyer as they will not truly have title or ownership of the property. It is certainly not the answer you were hoping for however please let me know if you have any follow-up questions or afterthoughts. I am a bit fearful of what you may find moving forward due to the missing title. I encourage you to head to the office of motor vehicles or call them directly with a serial number or VIN number that you may have been provided by the seller.
Abandoned Manufactured Homes
If this is the case then you’ll want to contact the local auditors office with the mobile homes VIN or serial number. If the previous bank/lender center grandfather a payoff notice or can show proof that the loan was paid in full this would be ideal to provide to the state. Is the home currently in a mobile home park or on a piece of land? Is your goal to live in the home, move it, or resell it soon? If you have any follow-up questions never hesitate to reach out any time.
All the best and please follow up with regards to how this matter ends up. Thanks so much for reaching out and connecting with regards to your questions. In most states there is no time limit for when the title must be recorded after it is signed by both buyer and seller.
From there the titles will exist and can then be provided to you. The most important thing is that the mortgage company is still in the picture and you know the VIN or serial number to identify the mobile home. Things will probably get a little tougher before they get better however there is deftly a way to solve this scenario.
Is it illegal for seller to do this numerous times without punishment legally? Additionally, congratulations on having the opportunity to purchase a property that you like. Some mobile home movers do require the title be in your name and others do not. In many situations the VIN or serial numbers will at least need to be known to pull permits if required.
In short, in most states there is no real way to find out what the home has previously been purchased or resold for. I believe that that is the information that you are looking for. If you are looking for different information about the property besides what it previously bought and sold for them please feel free to write back and let me know. If you have any additional follow-up questions or concerns never hesitate to reach out any time as well.
This answer is only based out of experience and I certainly am not an attorney or legal professional in any way. In all reality this wooden go to court and you would not start the eviction process, however hopefully it will get a return phone call from her. As always, if you ever have any follow-up questions or the situation changes never hesitate to reach out any time. If you have paid for this home that I would encourage you to contact a local real estate attorney for help. The attorney may only need to call or provide a letter to the sellers on the attorneys letterhead to help encourage the sellers to honor their agreement and sell to you.
Hi, I purchased a mobile home about 3 years ago from a private seller, and never received the title, nor will they respond when I ask for it. I’m wanting to turn my mobile home into a house next year, and want to know if I will be able to do so without having the title. However, they never transferred the title, they did not pay the 2020 taxes and they were sold in auction in June 2021. Sorry this is so long, but now I am at loss on how to proceed.
On the front of the home, near the mobile homes tongue, the VIN will often be coldpressed into the steel. You may have to take off the skirting to find this number. Thank you so much for reaching out in your kind words. I regret to hear you miss the opportunity to purchase that mobile home that you like here. With that said I hope that you found something you love even better for you and your family.
