My circumstances have changed & am considering selling my 213 Trail Lite. Any one have any tips for posting?
If you were in TN I would take a look at it!
But since you are not.... advice from someone who has been looking at all kinds of ads:
CLEAN the unit first. Pay special attention to the carpet and bathroom. No dishes in the sink, no jackets hanging on a hook.
Walk all around the outside and make pictures that show the corners and middle area of front, back, and both sides. Do the same on the inside--start looking out the front and show the cab, then move around in a logical pattern and make sure you show all the areas of the inside. Add pics of the tire tread, and the underside of the chassis. Make pics of the roof, too.
MAKE SURE your pics are well-lit and sharp! If you can't do it, recruit a friend with a good camera.
Check the NADA pricing. Very few motorhomes are worth more than that, and no one will finance more than low retail. Be realistic.
In the description--give detailed description of the engine, chassis, interior. Note any special features, like an upgraded battery or solar. Give the date code on the tires. List the type and size of the appliances. Give details of the electronics--batteries, inverter, whatever.
Take some effort to write up a good description and post pics. My take is that if you are too low-tech or too lazy to do those things, you probably haven't done a very good job maintaining the RV. If you are not good at that sort of thing, get someone to help you.
