How do I handle a manufactured home listing?
(1) Dealer responsibilities.
(a) The listing dealer shall be responsible for negotiating the agreement between seller and purchaser as follows:
(b) All written offers shall be presented to the seller for acceptance or refusal. A copy of the agreement shall be delivered to the purchaser immediately following the purchaser's signing.
(c) A copy of the offer to purchase shall be delivered to the seller immediately following seller's signing and acceptance of purchaser's offer.
(d) A copy of the agreement to purchase bearing the signature of the seller(s) shall be delivered to the purchaser as proof that the purchaser's offer was accepted.
(e) A legible copy of the agreement to purchase shall be retained in the listing dealer's files.
(f) A copy of the agreement between purchaser and dealer to disburse any funds from the trust account to pay liens against the used mobile/manufactured home shall be retained in the dealer's files.
(2) At the time the sale is closed, the listing dealer may pay outstanding liens out of the trust account prior to paying the sale proceeds to the seller.
(3) The sale of listed vehicles imposes upon the listing dealer the same duty under RCW
46.70.122 to promptly transfer title into the name of the retail purchaser, as in any other sale.
