Bought a manufactured home from out of state dealer and they went out of business.

So you are saying that you no longer have any use for it and want to sell it.

I suggest you call the California DMV and find out the best way to get a title to it. Usually there are procedures for a "lost title" which may apply.

You need to contact the factory where the home was made and speak to them about getting a MCO (manufacturers certificate of origin) paper from them so you can get the home titled in your state. Then if they send this to you go down to the DMV and get the home titled in your name.

If you want to then you can move the home to your specified location and have it put together (if it is a double wide) or just properly set up (if a single wide) and live in it as you have the home titled in your name. Or if you want to after you get the title you can go ahead and sell it.

I am wondering how you could have purchased a home from an out of state dealer as dealers are only licensed to sell homes in the state they are in.

If the above solutions don't help you can contact the Manufactured Homes Commission in your state's capitol and speak to them about the title and the dealership.

I worked at a manufactured home dealership in Ohio and knew how to title mobile homes new or used.

Thanks to all that answered,Let me explain a little more about my problem. This was a dealer from Utah and they were licensed and qualified to sell houses in nevada,arizona,utah,washington state and california,they just left it not even inside my lot (back in 2005), 'cause was raining and the two trucks got stuck in the mud I had to pay $1,500 to a guy who had this remote control tractor to move them into the right place.
2 weeks later I went to check the house and somebody took the fridge and stove out of the one piece with the kitchen, (house is double wide)I filed a report with local police. a few months after they delivered it, they sent some guys to put it together,they didn't finish it,never got my AC unit, I had to pay somebody to finish it to avoid water damage. I tried to call them for months with no luck,finally I got a letter from them saying that they couldn't qualify me for the rest of the money I owe.that was in 2006.
That's the last thing I heard from them,I found out they got in a lot of trouble with the real state enforcement and even FBI for all the frauds they did, they closed doors, and disappeared. Since I never got the letter or title the city was requesting for the permits for permanent installation, I couldn't finish the House,lost the 50% down I paid for the lot ($15K), the down for the permanent foundation and septic,survey, water meter, lot cleaning 2.5 acres. grading, garage blue prints,etc,etc.And at the end I had to to move the house from my lot, and store it in a friends land, another 5K. Is been more than 6 years since they delivered it. Is it a Good idea to contact the manufacturer? since I didn't pay the rest of the money? is it possible that this dealer owes money to the manufacturer? I heard the manufacturer just went BK. (Fleetwood).
whats gonna happen to all the money I lost if they want this house back. The house was in my lot unfinished for three years, never used it,they had the address,they delivered it, and nobody went there or left a note.
Can somebody give me some legal advise, or help me to find some other options? Is it possible to put a lien on it? House is worth nothing without the title, and I lost all my savings in it. Thanks in advance to all and God bless.
