My husband and I are taking a year off from traveling in our rv. we were thinking about renting it out but unsure if this is a good idea.It is a 1998 Coachmen Santara, we are unable to rent through a company such as RVshare because of its age. Is this something we can do on our own? Any advise?

One of the great attractions of RVs is you get to be in your rig, with your blankets and your dishes. Once you start renting it out, then it is like a motel on wheels. How much would someone pay to rent a 1998 trailer?
Not only would I be worried about someone abusing my rig, I'd also very concerned about someone breaking down in a 20 year old rig and suing me. No way.
My advice, check with your insurance company first. They can advise you on what additional coverage you will need for your rental business. I would not rent or lend my RV to anyone.
