See a lawyer immediately. Never give money to a Seller without a lawyer's advice. Are you buying the mobile home AND the land? If so, there should be a deed and title search for your lawyer to review. The mobile home title should match the mobile home being sold. Have you seen the title? What kind of documentation did you receive before you gave the Seller money?

Re: Real Estate Contract

I also can't believe you handed over 23k without involving an attorney. Mr. Georges is correct, you may have big problems now and need an attorney asap.
