Blue book value for RV ?

[Dakota1]

Are there any sites similar to Kelly blue book where you can get a book value for an RV ?
Also due to the Pandemic is 2021 ( Forest River ) a year that you should stay away from ?

Good morning,
In the lending business, the most common is NADA (now J.D. Power). I don't know of any lenders that use anything else for RV values. If you need a hand finding a value, we can do that. We just need year, make and exact model.
Let me know how we can help.
Thank you,
Ken

@Jireh Financial ... I have always wondered about this question as well, so I went to the NADA (now J.D. Power) website and entered my coach information (2021 model). It gives me a 1) Suggested List Price, 2) a Low Retail Price and a 3) Average Retail Price. So, if I understand this correctly, the Average Retail Price is what I should expect to sell to for? Also, where would the dealer trade in value fall in relation to these?

A dealership would be lower than all of those. Suggested List is what MSRP was when new. The version we use (and lenders) updates 6 times a year and include the wholesale value. That is the number that most lenders care about. They lend on a percentage up from there. Some base value on Average Retail but they go down from there. If we have the year, make and exact model we can help with that.
