2010 Freedom Express 170RB - Private Sale Questions

I have made an offer on a 2010 Freedom Express 170RB, contingent upon my returning to the seller (private sale) next week to look over everything with a fine-toothed comb to ensure it's in working order. It's currently winterized, we want the seller to dewinterize and fill the fresh tank so we can test water heater and all plumbing. We will also need to ensure the 120V electrical works (12V side is fine) - seller says they hardly used the A/C or microwave (they boondocked mostly) but we plan to use them so we need to ensure they work. I'll also bring a ladder and check the roof and underbelly. Seller states tires are of unknown age (we will be the third owners) but they didn't look overly worn or rotted, they seemed to have at least a year or two left. I plan to check the date code when I return - it was too dark and rainy to read them today.

Assuming it's all good and we buy, I know this is a 9 year old trailer but it's a Coachmen and is in immaculate condition from my inspection today. I struggled to find anything wrong aside from the screen door out of adjustment.

What do I need to look for besides the things I outlined above? Thanks!

Date tires were made is stamped on them. If they are 9-10 year old tires they need to be replaced no matter how they look

I saw no water stains inside, even inside ALL of the cabinetry. None in the basement storage either. Will look closer. Didn't get on the roof (rainy and dark) but will when I return and closely inspect for broken sealant.

WATER STAINS. IF YOU FIND ONE RUN.
