Why do I need an inspection for my RV?
Similar to a home inspection it's important to have a thorough inspection done on an RV before you purchase it. Whether it's brand new or previously owned, an RV inspection is vital to make sure it's both safe and road-ready for your next adventure.
RV inspections are essential for both new and used recreational vehicles.
Here’s why:
1. Unbiased Assessment: An independent RV inspection provides an unbiased view of the RV’s current condition. Whether you’ve just purchased an RV, are nearing the end of your warranty period, or want reassurance before selling, an inspection ensures peace of mind.
2. Safety and Reliability: Inspections help identify structural or mechanical issues before you buy an RV. Some states even require safety inspections for drivable RVs. Plus, extended warranty companies may need an inspection before approving a contract.
3. Cost-Effective: While an average RV inspection costs $600-$1500 depending on the type and age of the RV and the level of inspection, consider it an investment. Compared to the purchase price, it’s a small percentage. Moreover, it saves you time, frustration, and potential repair costs.
So, whether you’re a new owner or a seasoned RVer, an RV inspection is proactive armor against breakdowns and unwelcome surprises
