Re: Trailer as Real Property
Check to see if the trailer is registered with dmv. If it is not, and secured to the land on a foundation, then it would likely be deemed part of the real estate and improvements. If it is registered with dmv and not attached, it is more likely a motor vehicle. The other issue I would review is the language of the deed conveying the property. That would give some real clues as to the intention of the parties.
