DeBraal, Deputy County Attorney <br />Jennifer Hyde, Purchasing ManageGP <br />November 24, 2014 <br />Sale of Mobile Home at Auction <br />In March 2006, Amelia and Edward Termyna purchased a new mobile home with state funds <br />from the Hurricane Housing Repair Program (HHRP). The home was set up at Lakewood <br />Village Mobile Home Park, 1455 90th Avenue, Lot 9, Vero Beach, FL. The final purchase <br />and set up price was $69,140.00. The County held a first lien against the home for that <br />amount. In July 2014, the Termynas abandoned the mobile home leaving it sitting vacant <br />in Lakewood Village. <br />The County protected its lien interest by filing a lawsuit in replevin (repossession) and the <br />Circuit Court entered an order declaring the County title holder of the home on September <br />26, 2014. On November 8, the mobile home was sold at the County surplus property <br />auction. The winning bid was $26,500. Expenditures in this matter were as follows: <br />Filing .fee for the law suit 485.00 <br />Service of process 20.00 <br />Transferring title into the County 155.50 <br />Lot rent during County ownership (45 days) 723.60 <br />Total expenses $1,384.10 <br />When the expenses are subtracted from the sales price, the County recouped $25,115.90 <br />from the sale of the home. This amount will be returned to the SHIP Fund for use with that <br />program. <br />There is one more mobile home purchased under the HHRP and we are waiting for the <br />probate court to enter an order transferring title to the County. It is anticipated the home <br />will be sold at auction in a similar manner. <br />Copy to: Jennifer Hyde, Purchasing Manager <br />`-i'ROVED FOR /4 -M -/ <br />M ETIN�r���io�lr! /-/Lef'rj <br />COUNTY ATT(1RN>= v <br />F:Adrn:►n. <br />wj.}.anN6111 <br />aa8 =MI <br />
