Mobile Homes.
Where do I go to register my mobile home? You need into our office and fill one-maybe
two forms. The first form is a 521 Mobile Home transfer statement. This form
lets us know who the buyer and seller is, how the home
was transferred, where the home is currently located and where it is was at the
time of purchase, basic information on the home itself, the legal description,
and the purchase price. The second form is a form 402. This form is for
individuals who do not own the land their mobile home resides on. This form lets us know
who owns the land and who owns the
improvement (home) on the land.
What if I sell my mobile home? When you sell your mobile home
you must prorate the taxes yourself between buyer and seller. The county does
not prorate taxes. You will sign the title off to the new owner and they will
start the process all over again. If you sell a mobile home and the new owner
does not fill out the forms 521 and 402 there will be no record of this
transaction in our office thus, the tax statement will remain in your name
until this information is obtained.
What if I move my mobile home? Before you move a mobile home
the moving company requires a moving permit. A permit will not be issued until
the current taxes are paid up to date. That requires accelerating or making
taxes due now instead of at the end of the year. Moving a mobile home without
accelerating is punishable with a class four misdemeanor.
