I’d Like to Sell My RV For Cash – How Quick Will SellMyRVToday.com Pay for My RV?

Tuesday, May 15th, 2012

I’m one of those annoying people who wants to sell my motorhome immediately. I know that the process typically takes a while. I know it’s a major purchase and that people need time to consider it, but the fact of the matter is, that if at all possible, I need to get the RV sold and funds in my hands right away. I’d like to sell my RV for cash to avoid the hassle of the buyer needing to obtain financing. No matter how “in order” their financing is, it always seems to cause a delay, but if there’s cash in hand, it’s a different story. That’s why I’d like to sell my RV for cash. The problem is finding someone with the cash to make the purchase.

I got online to see what I could find. Craigslist was overflowing with RV ads. I knew that wouldn’t help me. There were too many options to compete with, and from what I’ve been told, the majority of “interested RV buyers” on Craigslist are always going to stay interested and never actually become buyers. They don’t have the money or the financing or the real intentions of owning. They’re just window-shopping for fun. Window-shopping is all well and good, but not on my time, please. I’d prefer to not waste my time entertaining strangers by meeting them to open up my RV for a tour. I skipped the Craigslist option and kept looking.

That’s when I stumbled upon SellMyRVToday.com. I was drawn in by the tag line, “Instant cash for your RV!” Their tag line sounded a lot like my own personal tag line, “I’d like to sell my RV for cash!” It was serendipitous and I clicked through to their site.

I’m curious to find out if the deal will be completed as advertised. It is supposed to be handled in 1 to 3 days from initial negotiating to delivery of certified funds as payment, and pickup of the vehicle. Even better is that all the stuff that comes in the middle, like title transfers and bank payoffs, etc. are handled by SellMyRVToday.com. It was as easy as could be and I got my cash as “instantly” as could be expected. How long did it actually take for SellMyRVToday.com to complete the deal? My RV was picked up and certified funds were delivered in 3 days. I’m more than happy with their method of handling the RV sale. It was definitely beneficial for me. Being a selfish creature at heart, that’s all it takes to leave me satisfied.

I Wanted to Sell My RV Online – What’s a Professional RV Buyer?

Wednesday, May 2nd, 2012

I just wanted to sell my RV online, which didn’t seem like too strange of a request, but I ran across something equally intriguing and odd. I read something that mentioned a professional RV buyer. I had never heard of such a thing. I don’t quite understand what it means. I wanted to sell my RV online, but before I do, I want to find out…what’s a professional RV buyer?

Here at SellMyRVToday.com we hear this question a lot. Our first answer is always this: WE are a professional RV buyer. Since that doesn’t really give enough information, we’ll continue on a bit.

SellMyRVToday.com is a website run by one of the largest professional RV buyers in the country. As a professional RV buyer, we purchase RVs that are for sale on a regular basis. The fact that we are a professional RV buyer makes us more available as we are advertising for sellers to come directly to us. We make the “wait for a buyer” simply go away. Since the wait for a buyer when selling a recreational vehicle can be up to several months, this is a huge benefit to RV sellers.

Another benefit that we, as a professional RV buyer, offer to recreational vehicle sellers is speed. We don’t just buy RVs, we buy them today. It’s like our name says. RV sellers who are frustrated by how slow all the RV purchases seem to take through selling by owner or consignment lots, are always extremely relieved to find us, because our transactions are typically completed in 1 to 3 days. We specialize in buying late model RVs and motorhomes like Class A’s, Class B’s, Class C’s, diesel pushers, etc. The only popular RV type that we don’t buy outright is the fifth wheel. We have been doing this for a long time and have the RV buying process down to a science. You can benefit from our experience, as you will receive a transaction that is not only fast, but also free of hassle and stress.

Next time you find yourself thinking, “I want to sell my RV online,” remember that you have a great advantage when you contact a professional RV buyer like SellMyRVToday.com.

I Need to Sell My RV Fast: SellMyRVToday.com Offers Advice on Advice

Friday, April 13th, 2012

When it becomes common knowledge that you need to “sell my RV fast,” you can rest assured that you will have advice coming at you from every direction. Some will be good advice, but it will also bring advice that isn’t accurate or applicable to your situation. SellMyRVToday.com answers questions about the RV selling process and timeline to make sure that sellers are able to discern between the good and the bad in their pool of advice.

Sellers who actually need to sell their RV fast need to remember that some of the “good” advice on selling at a profit will not be as applicable. Here’s what we recommend in response to the advice received in the previous post.

1.    Pricing it below market value is a good idea in theory, but there are three problems. First, people will assume something is wrong with the RV if you are willing to sell it for less than what it’s worth. Second, people will also assume that you are desperate. They will offer you pennies on the dollar in the hopes that they can get a smoking deal at your expense. Third, you need the money selling your RV can bring in. Pricing it far below value is bringing in a far less substantial total than you expected and may not be an appropriate means of speeding up the sale of the RV.

2.    Dropping extra cash into making repairs and upgrades on the recreational vehicle can be a good idea for those who are going to take their time and find that perfect buyer. For those who want to sell it fast, it’s not the best idea. The only repairs that should be made in preparation for the “fast” sale are those that would inhibit regular use of the vehicle. If there is something wrong with the vehicle, this may prevent someone from buying it. This is the type of repair that is necessary regardless of the time frame available for the selling process.

This is fairly appropriate advice, but is it the best advice out there? No. It’s not the best advice out there. Accessing the services available here at SellMyRVToday.com is a much more appropriate solution, especially for those who need to sell their RVs fast. Some think that we are similar to the consignment lots available in their local area. There are small similarities, but there is a major difference. We buy RVs. You don’t have to wait for months like you do when you place your vehicle on a consignment lot. With SellMyRVToday.com you are working with one of the largest RV buyers in the country. We don’t mess around. Do we buy RVs fast? That depends on your definition of the word, but there aren’t many who would define it any faster than our average, which is 1 to 3 days to the completion of the RV purchase.

I Need to Sell My RV Fast: Who Has Advice for Me?

Tuesday, April 10th, 2012

I need to sell my RV fast. It’s not that I hate it and it’s not that I’m sick of storing it or maintaining it. I’ve actually really enjoyed owning it, but I need the cash in a hurry. I don’t just want to sell it fast; I actually need to sell my RV fast. It’s not a secret that I’ll be selling it, so I have heard a lot of advice. The problem is that I’m not sure whose advice I should take and whose advice I should ignore. I guess you could say I need some advice on the advice I’ve been getting about selling my RV quickly.

1.    A friend suggested that I simply price it below market value and list it by owner. This didn’t seem to work for me. I got a lot of phone calls and texts, but nothing serious. Most of them had decided that my below market value asking price meant I was absolutely desperate or that there was something wrong with my motorhome, and they were giving me offers that were so low they were ludicrous.

2.    Another friend recommended that I drop some cash into the vehicle to fix and update every little thing, no matter how small. He was sure that no one could resist an RV in pristine condition. I’m unsure of this particular method because, while I do have some cash, it’s set aside for the same purpose that is the impetus for the sale of my recreational vehicle. I would need to increase the price of the vehicle enough to cover the additional cash investment. I just can’t see this resulting in a quick sale.

Is this the best advice there is out there? When I heard of this company (SellMyRVToday.com) I figured it was like the consignment lots here in town, but some of the information I’ve read makes it seem pretty different. The consignment lots here in town don’t seem to specialize in the quick sale. Do I understand your advertising correctly? Do you handle fast transactions without drastically decreasing the price paid for the vehicle? How does that possibly work for you?

Tips on Boondocking to Sell My RV Fast: Where to Park

Friday, January 15th, 2010

I’ve decided that the best way to sell my RV fast so I can buy a new one and resume my boondocking life is to spread the message about the joys of boondocking to prospective buyers.  This also means giving some general tips, and a big one is where to park.

Legal Parking Areas
Public lands are an important resource for boondockers.  A rule of thumb is that if you can access it with your RV and get at least 100 yards from the highway, its okay to camp there.  You mainly need to make sure that you’ll be able to get out as easily as you got in and that the surface will support your rig, and also consider how the terrain could be changed if it decided to rain.  Getting stuck in a swamp is no fun.

Other good places include snowpark parking areas and fishing access sites.  You want to be sure and park out of the way, where you won’t be blocking anybody else’s access.  Ask about “primitive camping” areas in national parks and recreation areas, and ask other RVers about good places in their home areas.

Major highway rest areas, truck stops, and most Wal-Mart parking lots provide good overnight stops for boondockers.  In rest stops park with the trucks.  In all of these areas, don’t park behind buildings, and don’t get out your grill or lawn chairs or similar accessories; you want to remain self-contained as much as possible.  Typically you want to keep your slides in—so when you buy an RV, make sure you get one that’s easy to use even when the slides aren’t extended (like mine!).

Living the Life to Sell My RV Fast

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

So I’ve been trying to sell my RV fast, because I want to upgrade and get on with enjoying my RV lifestyle!  Don’t get me wrong. My old trailer has been great, and it’s still in good shape. It’s just that I’m ready for bigger and better.  But I want to sell my trailer to someone who can appreciate all the awesome experiences that can be had and memories that can be made with its assistance, so I’m compiling a little journal of helpful hints for prospective buyers.

Tips for Conserving Water

I’ve been looking at things like conservation when dry-camping (sans hook-ups), and I’ll start with the all-important H2O.  100 gallons of water might seem like a lot, but conservation is especially critical when it comes to this life-sustaining substance.  Showers can cause major over-consumption, so be particularly careful.  You shouldn’t ever need to use a device for the reduction of water pressure except for saving the water hose.

Liquid Propane (LP) – Always a Safe Alternative

As far as water and space heating, cooking, and refrigeration, liquid propane is very safe to use.  Tanks can’t be more than 80 percent full, and there are no pilot lights involved.  Any leak is detected and causes automatic shut off, and very little maintenance is required.

Safety Tips for Dry Camping

This is largely common sense, but be aware of your surroundings.  Note any suspicious activity, just like in any other aspect of life, like you would in your neighborhood or at your house.  If you have a gun, be sure you know how to use it and the laws of whatever state you happen to be in.

With all of that said, you’re on your way to living this wonderful life!
