Buying or Selling a Home/No title for mobile home

Advertisement


Question
My nephew recently bought an oler mobile home (1979),  The
owners have lost the Title and Registration.  What should he do
now?  The decal and any numbers have been lost also. He lives in
Çalifornia.
I do hope you can help.
Thank you

Answer
As a real estate Broker I am not licensed to deal in mobile homes unless they are attached to land--but title and registration is different and more of a vehicular issue. Try vehicular registration or call someone who resells mobile homes to help.  I am sorry that I can't.
Good luck.

Experience

Anyone who is in this business and who dedicates oneself to professionalism has continued to take classes and along with it,additional credentials, awards and honors. I can list a host of them, but my greatest accomplishments happen to be those of getting first time buyers (who didn't think they could afford to buy a home)into a home of their dreams. The look on their faces when I hand over the keys is worth all of the hard work.
