The state of Pennsylvania treats a manufactured or mobile home that is not attached to real property as personal property, like a vehicle. Therefore, a title is issued for the manufactured home. A single-wide home has one title and a double-wide has two, one for each side. If you lose your title, the Pennsylvania Department of Transportation (DOT) requires you to complete an application and pay the applicable fee for a replacement title.
