Several factors to consider. Is the unit being sold paid for in full where the owner is holding the title. These sales tend to go smoother for private sales than do the ones where the unit is financed. The real problem is where the unit is financed and the buyer is also wanting to finance the purchase. The original company doesn't want to release the title till they see the money and the second mortgage company doesn't want to send their money till they have the title. A real catch 22 situation.
The PPL site is a world of information, watch the video on their home page, even if a person doen't use them to buy or sell. They list the selling prices of the last few thousand RVs they have sold. Probably the biggest problem I have had in trying to deal with private sellers is them letting their pride of ownership get involved in the pricing of their unit. Set the selling price to be reasonable and all a person needs then is a willing buyer. Most of the private sales I have gone to check out that have been listed as "just like new and top of the line" have been over priced worn out machines.
Most finance companies seem to prefer to deal with a reputable dealer than a private seller, unless the rig is financed and sold locally. With as bad a reputation that many used vehicle dealers have, in general, I find most are as honest as most private sellers. To sell a rig it needs to show well, cleaned and as advertised, lots of photos available and priced fairly.
