I imagine the original owner never delt with the paperwork since it was put on location and never moved. Unless a person was going to do the same with the trailer it would not be worth the hassle to try to register.
Ya know, this statement just made me think of something else. Here in FL, I’ve bought many trailers and RV’s from dealers over the last several years. With only one exception, they wouldn’t let me drive off the lot without them filing the registration paperwork. Is it possible that the same might have happened in this case and then the owner never renewed it? Or also possible that they just don’t know where the title is.
I honestly don't know the person I visited with bought it from the estate. It might be possible to track the info down if the trailer has a sticker from the selling dealer. The state (TX)should be able to tell you the last registered owner info from the vin number, if indeed it was registered.
