Lenders that don't require recent comparable purchase?

Yes, some dealers have said that they give a discount if we finance with them. We have not decided for certain on that private party sale, so have not applied for a loan yet. But, I'm sure that if it's meant to be, a way will be made available to us.

I thought that with credit unions, you had to have been a member for a while. I will inquire into that as well. And the home equity loan. But I was told that an RV loan interest could be tax deductible as a second home, so I felt it might be an advantage.
