4 SMART MOVES TO BOOST YOUR RV’S CURB APPEAL
Are you thinking about putting your RV on the market soon? The first thing you need to do is focus on improving its curb appeal. Why does it matter? It makes your rolling home look desirable and encourages your buyer to take a second look at what your coach has to offer. The more attractive it looks from the outside, the better it is. An inviting exterior often helps to increase the value of your rolling home. There are a lot of things you can do to improve the look and feel of your RV. Besides the obvious power-cleaning, invest your time in thoroughly scrutinizing every aspect of your RV’s exterior. Here are the four areas to focus on:
Exterior Paint
Age and extended use may give an RV a sorry look. You can give it a new lease of life with a fresh coat of paint. Sometimes, even after taking proper care, some of your RV’s body parts rust. Not only will painting help hide all rust marks, but will also weatherproof your vehicle, preventing it from getting further damages.
Problem Areas
How would you feel if after climbing up a few broken steps, you come face to face with a door that is shabby, has crumbling paints, wobbly doorknob, and cracks? It is likely that you will readily infer that it is an ill-maintained rig. And this is one thing that buyers dislike the most because after purchasing an item as expensive as a motor home, they would not want to be bothered by these petty problems. Therefore, correct any such issues before listing your unit on an RV selling site.
Tire Condition
RV Tires are expensive. So, one of the first things buyers would inspect are the tires. Deflated tires might be a sign of replacement, and that might cause the deal to go sour. If your tires are worn, change them; it will help it sell. Otherwise, keep them properly inflated to allay your customers’ fear that they might need to purchase a new set of tires very soon.
Outside Lighting
If you are showing the RV after sundown, keep your rig illuminated. Make sure that all the decorative lights as well as the head, the brake, and the tail lights are in perfect working condition. It won’t take much time or money to change the non-working light. On the other hand, the radiance would create a fairytale-like ambiance, helping enhance its curb appeal by several notches.
To stimulate a buyer’s interest in your rig, take an objective look at the unit and make sure that it is at its best when customers come for an inspection. We have already told you about four areas that demand your attention. If you need further assistance, contact us right away.
