What must occur if there is a change of ownership regarding a manufactured home?

In the case of a change of ownership regarding a manufactured home, a new application is required to appropriately update the ownership records and ensure that all legal requirements are met. This step is crucial because it allows for the new owner to establish their identity in the official records and ensures that any associated rights and responsibilities are correctly assigned.

A new application process typically involves submitting the necessary documentation to the relevant state or local authority that manages manufactured home registrations, which enables the new owner to receive a new title for the home in their name. This helps maintain a clear chain of ownership and protects the rights of the new owner.

While inspections, policy transfers, or appraisals might be necessary in other contexts or situations involving manufactured homes, they are not universally required just due to a change in ownership. Therefore, the requirement for a new application directly addresses the administrative aspects of ownership transfer.
