SELLING
AN RV - THINGS TO CONSIDER - the things RVers have recommended
to Roaming Times
Roaming Times has had many
people giving advice about buying an RV over the
last 8 years. These are some of the things
suggested; RV buyers might find them useful:
Clean your RV - inside and out
Carry out all the repairs that might be
necessary before you begin the selling process
Limit your use to maintain cleanliness
Put together a file of maintenance history,
receipts and details of upgrades etc.
Put together owner's manuals and documents
(warranties if you intend to transfer)
Remove all items you do not intend to sell
with your RV
Consult price guides like NADA,
setting the right price is very
important
Beware of high pressure salesmen - if it
sounds too good to be true it probably is - as
many readers have told us. If you have
to give them a decision very quickly, the
decision should probably be no ...
Check the RV for damp and mold - we've had
many horror stories about problem RVs (see the
RoTi section Scary
Stories)
Talk to RVers.
Ask them about their experiences
Remember, buying an RV is seasonal - prices
tend to be higher at the beginning of the
season. Many people sell at the end of
the season ..
Read the many
comments about selling an RV on RoTi -

BEWARE - experience with internet deals
involving shipping, wire transfer, or cashier
checks are often fraudulent !! Please be
careful of any deal which suggests it involves
these things - shipping, wire transfer or
cashier checks !!
