Whether you are looking to purchase an RV from a dealership or a private owner, the best time to buy is during the off-season, which starts a couple weeks after the weather turns cold and continues throughout the winter.
The beginning of the off-season is a great time to find good deals on private party used RVs. Owners who are considering selling their RV may decide to put it up for sale before the off-season starts to avoid having to winterize and then de-winterize their RV before selling it the next summer. If they have been trying to sell for awhile, they will frequently accept a lower price, eager to sell rather than have to pay the costs of storage and maintenance for another year.
Dealers also try harder to sell RVs during the off-season. They want to get rid of extra vehicles and reduce the expenses associated with maintaining a large inventory. Dealers are looking to improve their cash flow during the slow winter months. A large dealership may only have a few customers on the first day it snows. Fewer customers means a better opportunity to make a great deal with a dealer eager to move vehicles.
