Boat and trailer left behind by previous owner
Just closed on a house in our neighborhood to renovate and sell. Its waterfront, that is the big appeal. It was formerly owned by a hoarder and the basement, attic and garage are full of junk. In addition, there's an abandoned john boat with a motor, and a separate large trailer for a substantial boat on the lot. It has permanent trailer tags.
The seller was supposed to clear all personal property out prior to closing and we delayed for a week in order for them to do so. However, they failed to take any action. We got some cash back at closing instead, and a signed addendum that stated all personal property transferred to us at the time of sale.
My junk guy is going to do a cleanout, but we are thinking of selling the boat and trailer. What do we need to do to get title? Anybody?
