RV Broker came to our house

We are brand spankin' new Class C owners. We bought our coach from a dealer a week before we flew to Alaska for a two week vacation. While we were gone, a note was left on our front door asking if we would be interested in selling. Our son, who was house-sitting, retrieved the note (with no name) and gave us the phone number. DH "googled" the number and it comes up associated with various RV sales publications. He called the number, got voicemail, but chose not to leave a message till we research further. Any ideas on how he knew we just bought an RV, how he tracked us down, etc? We live on a dead end cul-de-sac and only homeowners drive back there. Any thoughts? Help!!!! Thanks!
  • Anyone could probably have gotten access to motor vehicle registrations. That's how most of these "warranty" companies know to send you a notice letting you know your factory warranty is about expire.
  • Thanks so much for the quick responses. Sometimes I forget how transparent our info is.
  • I would think he has very little interest in buying it. What he wants to do is get you to trade it in on one of his new ones. Pitch will be something to the effect, yours is in high demand, he can give you top dollar on a trade . Blah blah blah.

    Pretty common in the car business. Or on edit, he is trying for a listing in his magazine. Dealer may have sold the info, who knows. He has access to it somehow
  • Your information probably got sold by someone. Could have been the RV dealer, insurance, bank, or if you purchased some other sort of supplies.
