In Rhode Island, a title for a mobile or manufactured home resembles a vehicle title, including details such as the owner's name, the home's serial number, make, model, year of manufacture, and any lienholders. The title is issued by the Rhode Island Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV) and typically includes security features to prevent fraud. It must be signed by the seller during a transfer of ownership, and the new owner must apply for a title in their name. Additionally, there may be a certificate of origin for new homes or a bill of sale for used ones.
Yes. Most mobile homes and manufactured homes carry a title just like the title to a vehicle.

To get title to a house (real property--a house on land, a condo, or manufactured home with eliminated title), you must receive a deed from the current owner of record of the real property you wish to acquire. When the deed is signed by the current owner, it must be notarized and recorded in the property records of the county where the real property is located. Then, you are the title owner of the house. On personal property (mobile, modular, and manufactured homes), the current owner of the home signs off on the state-issued title to the home. If there is a lender or other legal owner on the title, that owner or lender must sign off also. Then, the new owner must take the signed off title to the state agency that handles vehicle titles. A new title with the new owner's name will be issued.
Mobile homes are supposed to be registered with the DMV in every state I know of. In my state, if a vehicle (an auto for example) is abandoned, one can talk to the local police dept. and/or the DMV to find out how to apply for title. I would imagine that the same holds true for mobile homes, or boats, or trailers or anything which must be DMV registered.
