Very likely a full probate can be avoided. The likely easiest thing is to use the Department of Housing forms to transfer the mobile without probate. If there is also the land, under the mobile, in her name then some sort of probate court procedure will be needed. The most likely options:
1) Under $50k affidavit procedure if the dirt is worth under $50k
2) Spousal property petition
3) Under $150k if property worth between $50k and $150k and the SPP won't work for some reason
4) Full probate
I should think #1 would work though... as long as the dirt is valued at under $50k. Just the dirt as the mobile itself passes by the DHS forms.
Good luck. -John
