Is this Mobile home attached to land?
Good afternoon, I am interested in buying in an County Auction for Tax deed sale a land which has a mobile home on it I want to fix it and live in there.
My question is this: How do I know if the mobile home is Real Property or Personal Property?
I saw the warranty deed and it says:
Address: ......
Legal Description:........
Toghether with that certain .....Mobile home
Identification tag:....
Title No:....
Subject to taxes fro the years......
Also when I went to the property appraiser website and entered the parcel number there is a Tab "Improvements" that shows all the details of the mobile home, year, size, etc.
I called the Tax collector, Tax deed sale office, DMV and nobody has a clue if the mobile home is attached to the land or not.
I am afraid of wining the auction, pay for the land and fix the mobile home and next year the owner of the mobile home just shows up and tell me "Hey look I have the Title of that Mobile home is my Personal Property and I will remove it, thank you for all the improvements you have done, have a good day!"
Any advice will be greatly appreciated since the guys that works for the government are clueless.
