Used motorhomes are everywhere and a very competitive market. When we sold our first MH privately, I had it inspected so it was turn key and ready to go. Anything on the inspection I had fixed. I felt this appealed to potential buyers and it does. Most buyers excited about the purchase of a MH - new or used, want to get out and camp. They don't want to be bothered with new tires or anything else that it needs. I say most because some are looking for a project they can buy cheaper. But I would bet most buyers would rather pay a fair price and have it ready to roll than try and get a deal knowing it needs work. It also lends that thought about "what else does it need?.." If you don't get tires and have it ready to roll get ready for less interest and more haggling on your price. If you get it ready to go, you'll get more interest and can hold a little more firm on your price. Just my 2 cents.
Selling expensive stuff is a science and that is why on Real Estate you hire professionals to help you with it.
I build new house in California and being short of funds did not put pavers, assuming new owner might like the option of his choice of color and shape.
After few weeks it become obvious that to sell house with no finished driveway would require lowering price by $200,000.
I put pavers.
