Hi
I was sold a mobile home that is out of state as an investment at a "real estate"meeting. I would like to sell it, I am not sure the process since it isn't on real estate.

Thank you for advice.
Hi Leah, selling a mobile home can be a little different from selling a traditional house since many of them are considered personal property rather than real estate, especially if it’s not attached to land. The process depends a lot on the state it’s in, but typically you’d need to treat it more like selling a vehicle—there’s usually a title involved, and you transfer ownership through that, not a deed. If it’s in a park, you may also need to follow their rules for sales and get buyer approval. If it’s on land you own, it could be real property, but if not, you’re essentially selling the home itself. A good first step is to check with the state’s DMV or housing agency to see what’s required for title transfer and any taxes or fees. You can also list it through a local mobile home broker or marketplace if you want help finding buyers.
