I am selling my mobile home and giving a loan to the new buyer. If he doesn’t make his payments, I want to know what document I need to start the Repossession process in California. I assume I give him a formal warning. Is that after 30 days? I find the information on the internet is for the homeowner who is facing repossession. Thanks for any info you can give.

I do not know the answer but I do wonder and would ask if I did would be > is the loan formal or verbal? Is it in writing or no? What were/are the conditions of the loan?

Well Hypatia, the loan WILL BE secured by a written note and a security agreement.

If I were you I would definitely invest in seeing an Attorney or at the very least closing this transaction with a Title Company. You will avoid a lot of heartache and hassle by doing it right.
