Before you sink a dime into it. Do some comparison shopping, Older RV's I am assuming a MH, loose value fast as the unused years pile up and you may find a nice on that has been used and maintained and you can, with a few minor fixes or up grades move in to it with out all the hassles.
I met a single lady in poor health this spring from Wisconsin who went out to California to spend part of the winter with a relative and while there bought an older Bounder MH in what looked like decent condition. She bought a car to tow and came over to Yuma to get some dental work done in Los Algadones Mex.
She was going to drive it home to Wisc alone a week after we were going to leave. I asked her if she had checked tires. It turned out the tires were 11 years old. I never did hear if she got them changed and made it home or not, I often wondered. I know at $600 - $1000 per tire she was not happy to have to address the question.
Every used vehicle I have ever bought has had new tires on it from the seller or I put them on immediately. They are just to critical.
