[WSBARP] Is a manufactured home real property in Wasington?

[Joseph McIntosh]

I don’t think it is a fixture, i.e. part of the realty, as long as it is titled with DOL.

You would want to find the DOL title.  If you can’t find it, locate the serial no. and submit an inquiry to DOL for a database search.

If it was de-titled, that recording would have been made with the county.

If title has been eliminated with DOL then it is real property.  Otherwise it is either personal property or perhaps a fixture.

I have a dissolution where a manufactured home is community property.  It sits on the H’s parents property.  It is permanently sitting on the property.  I understand that various jurisdictions have various requirements to consider a manufactured home real property, but I don’t know what Washington statutes require.  Any thoughts would be appreciated.  I posed this question to the DRAW list serve because I’d also like to know what difference it may make in dividing the community property if it is real property or not.

Thank you,
