After the Sale

After buying a mobile home in New Hampshire you will need to make sure that your home is titled under your name. The process seems to be a little different than in most states, New Hampshire changed their state law in 1983 to recognize manufactured homes as real estate, which means ownership is marked with a warranty deed rather than a bill of sale or title. This was put into place to make it easier for conventional loans to be used to buy manufactured housing.

So, if you are buying from a dealer, make sure they are handling the transfer of ownership for you. If you are buying a pre-owned mobile home, contact your county clerk office to make sure you complete the process correctly.

Issues After Installation

Every new mobile home includes a 1-year manufactured home warranty. This warranty covers defects from the manufacturer as well as issues that may go wrong during installation. If you have an issue, be sure to keep good records of any communications (preferably send everything in writing) so that you have a paper trail showing you have tried to resolve your issues within the first year.

If you aren’t able to get those issues resolved with the manufacturer or dealer, its time to file a complaint. New Hampshire handles their own HUD dispute resolution program and you can file your request by mail, telephone, email, fax, or online.
