Abandoned Mobile Home in Mississippi

Has anybody been able to get possession or control of an abandoned mobile home IN MISSISSIPPI?

I have come across some land that was foreclosed on by the bank. They are now trying to sale the land only but there is a mobile home on it that has been abandoned. The mobile home appears to be in great shape. Through some research of my own I found out the the mobile home most likely belongs to the deceased owner of the land that went into foreclosure. He was 93 when he died in 2010 and I have not checked the Chancery Court in Mississippi yet to find out if anyone has taken any action on behalf of his estate. I do know that Mississippi treats mobile homes as personal property and this particular year of mobile would have been issued a title (much like a car from the Mississippi Department of Revenue). I could call them if I had the VIN number and see who owns it or is the lien holder.  I believe the mobile was paid for but was put on financed land. I am thinking that the Mississippi Department of Health in that county may have the VIN because they approve the wastewater treatment plants or septic tanks.

The realtor seems to be a novice and claims to have no information and 'couldn't' answer any of my questions 'because it is a foreclosure'.
