You've decided to list your caravan for sale on caravancampingsales but what should you do before creating your ad and attracting a buyer? Here are a few tips to help you prepare your caravan for sale and give you the best chance of selling quickly and at the best price.
Make sure your caravan is up to date with servicing and consider doing some low cost repairs
Small improvements like touching up scratches, dents or fixing any broken parts aren't time consuming and could boost the appearance and asking price of your car dramatically.
Check if you need a roadworthy certificate
In some states and territories, you will be required to provide a roadworthy certificate before selling your caravan. It’s a good idea to check with your local road authority to ensure you have all the necessary documentation to make for a smooth sale. Find out more on roadworthy certificates here.
Give your caravan a good clean
As simple as it sounds, giving your caravan a good clean inside and out can make a really big difference to the success of selling it. Presentation is everything so ensure you also remove any personal items from your caravan and consider spending a bit of extra money on a professional detail clean.
Contact your finance provider
If your caravan is currently under finance, you should contact your finance provider to arrange for it to be paid out upon sale. Find out more on selling a car with finance remaining here.
