Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Illinois
New Owners Will Change Records at Courthouse
We previously owned a mobile home in Illinois. This was sold to a young couple in 2003. We have received the mobile home tax bill every year since. The new owners have always paid the tax, but have not yet bothered to change the records at the courthouse. I know that they need to take the title there in order to get the records changed. I called the manager of the mobile home park and had her relay this information to them. I was told by the courthouse that unless someone brings the title there showing that they are the owners then it will remain in my husband's name. What can I do about this? We no longer live in the state of Illinois which makes the problem a little more complicated. Thanks

Do absolutely nothing. Just throw the bill away and forget it. You have done more than your share to have the new owners get the tax bill.
