Alternatively, instead of actually taking back the money you might consider pre-arranging a move of the mobile home to a new park (at least see if its economically feasible) and if it is something you would consider show up to the sellers how on the premise you're going to get your refund, and spring on her you'd be willing to settle the situation by receiving the refund (get it in your hand first) and instead of her having a liability to repay the $1,000 she's already spent you'll relieve her of the requirement to repay the $1,000 in exchange for you taking the trailer she'll not be able to sell to anyone else anyway.Its worth a shot if the economics work out. 

In this case, I expect to have repayed the note by the end of year anyway.
