In this video, I walk you through a real inspection I did on a used 2014 Thor Hurricane Class A that my out-of-state client was ready to buy. The big “plus” was that it was stored indoors, but I still required the owner to unwinterize it. If I can’t run water, I can’t properly check for active leaks, I can’t test the water heater, and a lot of expensive problems can stay hidden. Once everything was accessible, I found the typical roof and sidewall sealant cracking (and yes—sealant work is costly because it’s hours of tech time), a broken antenna, and a full set of outdated tires that needed replacement. I also noted missing fire-resistant sealant around the water heater gas line and outdated safety detectors. But the biggest ticket item was rot along the edges under the slide floor—exactly the kind of thing that can turn into a $5,000–$10,000+ repair depending on how far it spreads once you open it up. Here’s the takeaway: inspections pay for themselves. My client used everything I documented—slide rot, tires, sealant work, and required safety fixes—as negotiation leverage and offered $17,000 under asking. The seller accepted, and she walked away with money in her pocket to handle repairs on her timeline instead of buying a lemon blind.
