Form S-110L example filled out, example: a buyer applies for a manufactured home certificate
Jane Sample applies for a manufactured home ownership certificate on form S-110L. She pays the 6 percent tax on her purchase price and claims no tax exemption. The picture shows the filled form, and all its values are invented. She ticks Owner, so Other stays empty. She has no lender, so the first and second secured party boxes stay empty. Nothing was transferred by a court document, so the type of document, county, state, court and file/docket # boxes stay empty. No tax was paid to a reciprocal state, so the credit for tax paid to a reciprocal state is left blank. The form prints no fee amount, so the certificate fee and total stay empty. She is the only owner, so full rights to survivor is left blank.
