In general, no. There are circumstances, however, where in the instance of a mobile home being permanently affixed to land that the title is "retired". Refer to Chapter 401 of the Pennsylvania Code, § 401.5, which states:
§ 401.5. Cancellation.
(a) Certificate of title. The owner of a mobile home which has been permanently mounted on a foundation and affixed to real property may apply for cancellation of the certificate of title or ownership for the mobile home by completing the appropriate form furnished by the Department of Transportation and returning it with the certificate of title or ownership to the Department of Transportation.
(b) Outstanding liens. If there is an outstanding lien, the certificate of title or ownership will not be cancelled until the applicant submits satisfactory evidence that the lien has been recorded against the land on which the mobile home is located.
(c) Transfer after cancellation. In order to sell or transfer a mobile home without also selling or transferring the land on which it is located, the owner of the mobile home who intends to transfer the mobile home shall obtain a new certificate of title or ownership in accordance with the procedure set forth in subsection (d).
(d) Obtaining new certificate after cancellation. To obtain a new certificate of title after cancellation of a certificate, the owner of the mobile home shall submit to the Department of Transportation an application on the appropriate form, accompanied by the following documentation:
(1) Certificate from an attorney or title company that there is no mortgage, judgment or other lien of record against the mobile home; or, if there is a lien, a release executed by the lienholder and certified from the records of the Recorder of Deeds or Prothonotary, as appropriate.
(2) Copies of one of the following documents:
(i) The Departmental form, ‘‘Receipt For Mobile Home Title Cancellation,’’ properly endorsed by the Department and issued by the owner who intends to transfer the mobile home.
(ii) The deed to the land indicating ownership of the mobile home by the owner who intends to transfer the mobile home.
(iii) If neither document described in subparagraphs (i) or (ii) is available, a bill of sale for the mobile home issued to the intended transferor.
(3) The Department may require an affidavit detailing the chain of title and the circumstances of the acquisition of the mobile home by the intended transferor.

If just the mobile home is being sold, there must be a title.
