Leaky roof, sell as is or try to repair?
Hi Guys,
I haven't been on for a while but I was hoping some of you could provide some advice.
I still have our Winnebago Minnie which we used so much when my sons were younger. The boys are now 12 and going on 7 and we are all so busy with other pursuits in life that we did not get out to camp once this year.
With that being said, my wife and I have decided to sell the motorhome. A while back it had an issue with a leaking front clip, the typical water intrusion that makes a mess out of the overhead bunk area. A year ago I got an estimate to have it fixed and it was around $3100. Other items have come up around the house and it never got taken care of.
My question to you all is, I would like to attempt to sell it as is. I understand I will take a beating on it due to the front clip leaking but the rest of the motorhome is in excellent condition other than a little bit of delamination that has been there since I bought in 2007 and it needs a new awning. Newer tires, fiberglass is clean and shiny, had the e-brake replaced, all new batteries, clean inside, no rust, drives nice, and only 34,000 miles. With the disclosure of the front clip, does anyone have any kind of guess what I should ask for it? Last check on NADA had its value around 20K but I know that someone is going to get it for a lot less due to the water damage and I accept that. I dont want to sink the money into getting it fixed only to find out I cant sell it.
Just looking for some advice from someone who may have gone through this before.
Thanks and god bless,
Rob
