People who purchased a mobilehome or manufactured home but didn’t receive the necessary title to the property now have a chance to properly register their homes with the new Fee and Tax Waiver Program – and avoid paying hundreds or even thousands of dollars in state and local taxes, fees and penalties.

The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) is administering the program to get the homes properly registered – and to help homeowners avoid problems that can occur when the owner doesn’t have the title and registration. As many as 160,000 people could be eligible for the program.

The Fee and Tax Waiver Program, passed am Assembly Bill 587 and signed by Gov. Edmund G. Brown last year, took effect this year.
