House Bill 1510

House Author:  Hamilton

Senate Sponsor:  Carona


            House Bill 1510 amends the Occupations Code to authorize the release of certain liens on a manufactured home or a tax lien on a manufactured home perfected with the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs (TDHCA) only  by specified TDHCA procedures. The bill revises procedures relating to a perfected real property election of a manufactured home, specifying that the owner of a manufactured home who elects to treat the home as real property must notify the chief appraiser of the applicable appraisal district instead of the tax assessor-collector that a certified copy of the statement of ownership has been filed with the county.  The bill repeals a provision relating to the filing requirements for a seller who accepts a trade-in manufactured home as part of the consideration for the sale of another manufactured home.
