Questions First-Time Wasco Sellers Ask

Do I own the ground under my home?

Not in a park. In a Wasco park, you own the home. The park owns the lot, and your buyer rents it. On private ground, the answer differs. Be sure which one applies to you.

What is the $55 fee?

It is the Oregon DCBS fee to transfer the home's title to the buyer. Park homes transfer by title, not by deed. The fee is part of that process.

Why does the county need a form?

Form 2952 certifies that taxes on the home are paid. DCBS will not transfer a Wasco title without it. Get it early to avoid a stalled closing.

Can I get help with the sale?

Yes. Call 971-GO-ON-MLS, use contact, or read the FAQ page. Buyer financing basics are on Oregon financing.

The Sale Steps in Plain Words

Park homes are personal property under Oregon law. That single fact drives the process. Title moves through DCBS, not through a deed recording.

County certification comes before transfer. Form 2952 shows taxes are paid. Without it, DCBS waits.

In Wasco, buyer approval is the park's step. ORS 90.680 says the buyer applies, and the park must accept or reject a complete application within 7 days. If the 10-day pre-sale notice was not given, the park gets 10 days.

Rent increases follow their own clock. Wasco parks must give 90 days of written notice. They may increase rent at most once in 12 months. This Wasco summary is general information, not legal advice.
