§ 2605. Mobile home bill of sale conversion process
The owner of any mobile home that was initially financed pursuant to a motor vehicle
loan, motor vehicle retail installment contract, or another form of chattel mortgage
shall, if the mobile home is subsequently financed as residential real estate pursuant
to subsection 2603(b) of this title, file a request for purging of the security interest with the clerk of the municipality
where the chattel mortgage for the mobile home was last recorded.
(1) A request to purge the security interest of a mobile home shall include the most recent
Vermont uniform bill of sale or certificate of origin, the terminated UCC financing
statement or statements, and an executed warranty or quitclaim deed, which shall be
drafted substantially in the form provided in section 2604 of this title.
(2) Upon the filing of a request to purge the security interest of a mobile home with
the clerk of the municipality where the chattel mortgage for the mobile home was last
recorded, and upon the owner’s procuring the consent of the holders of any security
interest in the mobile home shown to be unreleased, the mobile home shall become residential
real estate.
(3) Upon receiving a request to purge the security interest of a mobile home, the municipal
clerk shall mark or stamp the originally filed Vermont uniform bill of sale or certificate
of origin with the word “converted.”
(4) A mobile home that has been converted to residential real estate shall not be converted
or redefined as personal property. (Added 2007, No. 176 (Adj. Sess.), § 41.)
