We decided to advertise the 5ver and truck as is and see what kind of response we got. He emailed me a while ago with the 1st offer, which was very low. The interested party indicated they might go just a bit higher but not much. I will have to think about it - he just wants the 5ver and not the truck, so I would probably buy a truck camper (cabover) and keep my truck. I am giving it a week, and then we will rethink it. With my sight being as it is, and the fact the guys (2 sons and s-i-l) will find it difficult to spare a lot of time to fix it up, I think the best, quickest, and easiest for me is to just sell it as it is.
At least I'm off to a good start.
Sometimes letting something go for a lesser price is worth it just to gain some peace of mind & move on to other things.
ReplyDeleteJust make sure that it isn't too lowball a figure, We wil accept a little less for the house just to get it sold, but not give it away, compare what others in your size are going foe on Craigslist, or E-Bay, that genrally gives you a starting point.
ReplyDeleteWaiting a week to make a decision is probably a good thing. Hard to do sometimes, though. :)
ReplyDeleteYou could always make him a counter-offer Gypsy. If his offer is really low, he's most likely expecting a counter offer from you. If you make it less than the original price, but still o.k. for you, I'll bet he'll come back with a better price!
ReplyDeleteThe counter offer idea is a good one. Just like when you sell a sticks and bricks home. Good luck!
ReplyDeleteGood luck with selling your 5th wheel. Does the generator go with it? Will your Truck Camper have a geneartor? I had thought of doing the same thing, except, I have 50 gal fuel tank in the bed, so no slide in camper!
