Title Department Services


The Titling team serves a variety of customers including the general public, manufactured/mobile home dealers, financial institutions, title/escrow companies, and legal offices. All manufactured/mobile homes sold or shipped into Nevada need to be registered and titled with the Division. The "Certificate of Ownership" or title is your proof of ownership, much like a title for a vehicle or a “deed” for a site-built home.  We now e-mail the “Certificate of Ownership” to the e-mail address provided on the titling application.  If you have lost your “Certificate of Ownership, we are most happy to e-mail you a PDF version upon request. Please e-mail us at: titles@housing.nv.gov

    Certificate of Ownership

    The Manufactured Housing Division issues titles and maintains state records of ownership on manufactured homes, mobile homes and commercial coaches; we provide title searches, record liens placed on homes and issue Real Property Notices for homes converted to Real Property.

      State Statute requires NEW homes to be titled within 30 days of the sale (see NRS 489.501); for used home sales it is 45 days (see NRS 489.511 and NRS 489.521).

        The Certificate of Ownership(Title) contains information about the manufactured or mobile home.

          Structure Identification
          The structure information contains the name of the manufacturer of the home; the year it was manufactured; the size of the home; and the model and serial number.

          Owner
          The home owner may be an individual(s), business or Trust. If the home is being financed, the Certificate of Ownership will list the lienholder.  The title will be e-mailed to the Owner(s), Lienholder(s) and appropriate County Assessor Office.   

          Manufactured homes and mobile homes must also be registered with the county assessor’s office for collection of property taxes.

          Beneficiary Title

          This is a title that would convey ownership to the beneficiary or beneficiaries upon the death(s) of all titled owner(s).

          It is different from the JTWROS, because the beneficiary does not take ownership of the home until the passing of the titled owner(s).

          The names of the beneficiaries will appear in the section marked at TOD (Transfer on Death) on the face of the new title. 

          How does it work?

          -The homeowners will provide the full legal names of all beneficiaries on a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022

          -The Division will issue a title naming the beneficiaries under the TOD section

          -Upon passing of the titled owners, the beneficiaries will provide the Division with a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022, Death Certificate(s) for titled owner(s) and a titling fee

          Important things to know

          -We need full legal names for all beneficiaries

          -Beneficiaries may be added and/or removed by titled owners at ANY time. A titling fee will apply each time a change to the record is made

          -In order to add or remove a beneficiary, ALL titled owners must have their signatures notarized on section ten of a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022

            Where can I get a title changed on a manufactured or mobile home?

            Titles or "Certificate of Ownership" are issued by the Division. You may mail your titling submissions to our Carson City office for processing. The fee is $60.00, per transfer.

              Can I sell my home myself?

              Yes. Any homeowner may sell his or her personal residence (home). The seller should provide the buyer with a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022. All signatures must be notarized on the Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022. The buyer should verify that the property taxes have been paid by contacting their local County Assessor's Office. The buyer will need to have the Certificate of Ownership endorsed by the Assessor's Office before it is submitted to the Division.  If you require a  Certificate of Ownership, you may request a new one by e-mail us at titles@housing.nv.gov.  The new homeowner should submit their request for a new title to the Division within 30 days.

                Can the home be registered to a trust?

                Yes. You must complete the Affidavit of Trustee Appointment & Powers on section three of a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022 and all trustees or successor trustees must sign section ten. The Certificate of Ownership will be issued in the name of the trustee on behalf of the Trust.

                  Can the home be converted from personal property to real property?

                  Yes, in most cases. The home will need to have a conversion inspection by a city or county inspector. You may obtain an Affidavit of Conversion form from the Division.  It is located under the “Titling Forms” on the top right-hand side of this page. The form must be completed and recorded with the county recorder's office. The recorded Affidavit of Conversion form must be submitted to the Manufactured Housing Office, along with a copy of the deed to the land, and the conversion fee of $60. If you need to change the title record to match the land, you will also need to include a Certificate of Ownership that was obtained from the Division after August 23, 2022

                  along with the title fee of $60, per transfer.  Please Note:  The Conversion to Real Property is NOT complete until you have received a Real Property Notice from Manufactured Housing.
