you do not have the serial number. What you have is the manufacturers certification label number (HUD label number(
Since the number starts with ULI.. that means the Underwrites Labs was the inspection agency for your home. Underwriters had one client, Skyline Homes, so you have a Skyline Home.
If you need to find the actual serial number, go to the front cross member on the chassis, where the hitch rails attach. Stamped in the front steel crossmenber is the serial number, take a wire brush and start brushung, you will see it.
or you can contact a contractor for HUD with the number you have, they can search it for you, but will charge a fee bucks
call them

Hello Eugene,

I am buying a mobile home from a private person he says that the home was abandoned in his park and that he can give me paperwork stating that In am now the owner. Is this legal and how could I get a title? Thank you

I would think not. remember, the home is titled like a car. be safe, not sorry!
