Generally speaking most RVs are sold based on the inside looks/layout. Give serious consideration to access with the slides (if any) in - bed, bathroom, refer, cabinets, etc.
It's like buying a used car with the house bouncing and vibrating down the road. If you are not a DIY person then be prepared to hold your CC high in the air.
Search Google for ideas. Among other things search and develop a Pre Delivery Inspection (PDI) and make it extensive. Expect to spend hours checking YOUR list not a dealers or seller list. HOURS. Be prepared to walk away after you've drive 5 hours for the great deal. It's like buying a used car - don't believe anything they say.
Coveralls on and look for (rust, flooding, items that need repair. Look extensively for water leaks - water and wood get very expensive.
If you can find a good RV inspector hire him. Ditto mechanic for the chassis. NO one associated with the seller. Check tire dot age.
Make sure the RV meets your travel/living expectaions and the equipment and mechanical aspects also.
Good luck.
