If you’re buying, selling, or inheriting a mobile or manufactured home in San Diego, one critical detail could delay your plans: your mobile home title.

The mobile home title is the legal proof of ownership—and if it’s not clear, it could block your sale, refinancing, or even an inheritance transfer.

At Mobile Home Connection, we help people with mobile home title transfers every day, and one of the most common issues we see is extra names on the title that don’t belong there anymore.

Why Mobile Home Titles Often Have Hidden Problem

Here are a few common surprises we find during title reviews at Mobile Home Connection:

  • An ex-spouse still listed after a divorce settlement
  • A deceased relative who was never legally removed
  • A lienholder or lender who never released the title after payoff
  • A previous co-signer or owner still showing as a titleholder

What to Look for on Your Mobile Home Title (Before It’s Too Late)

Doing a quick check now can save you a ton of stress later. Here’s what to look for:

  • Ownership names: Do only the current legal owners appear?
  • Liens or loans: Are any paid-off debts still listed?
  • Deceased parties: Are there names of people who’ve passed away?
  • Mismatched information: Do names or signatures mismatch your ID or legal records?

If anything seems off, address it now—before you’re stuck in escrow with the clock ticking.

Fixing Mobile Home Title Issues in California: What You’ll Need

In California, most mobile home title corrections go through the HCD (Housing and Community Development Department). You may need:

  • Lien Satisfied Form: To remove a lender after payoff
  • An Affidavit for Transfer Without Probate if someone listed has passed away
  • A Duplicate Title Application For lost or missing title documents
  • A Statement of Facts To explain unusual ownership or history
  • A Bill of Sale or Power of Attorney, Depending on who is taking ownership

Every case is unique, and paperwork can get overwhelming—but with help from Mobile Home Connection, it’s completely manageable.
