Is there any federal tax lien on the mobile home?

Guest 0.10 Dollars($)

Well, I am long time lurker here. I am planning to purchase a mobile home soon. Now my doubt is how to know whether there is a federal tax lien on the home?

Hi,

Mobile home without land is treated like a car. As much as I know, there are no lien recorded on title of a mobile home except the lender's liens.

You can check the seller's title and come to know what liens are there on the title. At the time of purchase, while you take a new title transfer to the title transfer desk, they will be able to tell you about any outstanding property taxes and won't let you transfer the title until the outstanding taxes are paid.

Hi,

You can make a title search with the Department of Motor Vehicles. Federal liens can be placed on all the real estate and personal property.

Before buying a mobile home you must contact the County Clerk's/Treasurer's office to ensure that there is no tax bills or lien against the home.
