A 6901 - Manufactured Homes Certificate of Title

Overview

Bill Number: A 6901
Title: Relates to manufactured homes certificate of title and the conveyance and encumbrance of manufactured homes as real property
Status: ENACTING CLAUSE STRICKEN
Introduced: March 18, 2025

Purpose and Intent

This bill aims to establish a comprehensive system for the titling and conveyance of manufactured homes as real property. The primary goal is to provide greater legal clarity and security for owners of manufactured homes, aligning their property rights more closely with traditional site-built homes.

Key Provisions

  • Requires all manufactured homes to be titled through the state Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV)
  • Allows manufactured homes to be conveyed and encumbered as real property, rather than as personal property
  • Establishes a process for converting existing untitled manufactured homes into the new titling system
  • Specifies requirements for the application, issuance, and transfer of manufactured home titles
  • Outlines procedures for recording manufactured home titles with county property records
  • Provides protections for lienholders and establishes priority of security interests

Affected Parties and Impacts

This bill would primarily impact owners of manufactured homes, as well as lenders, real estate professionals, and local governments. Key effects include:

  • Provides manufactured home owners with greater legal rights and easier access to financing
  • Simplifies the process of buying, selling, and financing manufactured homes
  • Requires coordination between the DMV, county clerks, and property records to implement the new titling system
  • May result in increased costs and administrative burdens for state and local agencies

Procedural and Timeline Considerations

The bill is currently in the ENACTING CLAUSE STRICKEN stage, meaning the original enacting clause has been removed, likely due to amendments or other changes. This indicates the legislation is still actively being considered, but the final outcome remains uncertain. If passed, the bill would likely require a transition period for the new titling system to be fully implemented across the state.
