Thanks for all the advice. I live in southern California so Idaho is a bit farther than I would like to go to get a camper. I have read several times to check for rot but I am not sure how to do that. Also, how do you tell if there are leaks in the roof or anywhere else if it is not raining when you check out the camper.
As for hiring someone to inspect a camper how you you recommend finding a good inspector?
I think I can check all the appliances and make sure things like that work but I don't want to buy something that is rotted out and needs a lot of structural repairs and battles with mold.
Thanks again for all the help. If there is anything already written up that would provide these answers please let me know. I looked in the FAQ section and there was one titled Buying Basics Summery but none of the links worked so it didn't help much.
