Condo RV Lots???

[Pete Masterson]

If you're going to bet on the baby boomers, I think something other than RV condo lots might prove more valuable. I notice there's always a few such places advertised for sale in the classifieds in one of the RV magazines (FMCA, Good Sam) "two years old..."  where someone wants to bail out. 

I suspect that these appeal to a fairly small portion of the RV population -- obviously those who wish to snowbird and return to the same place over and over. More frequently, I've heard of a few folks who've full-timed for a couple of years, then found a place to settle -- often selling their large RV and getting something smaller or even quitting road trips entirely.

A developer who converts open land into an RV condo lot development might well make good bucks, but it's highly questionable that buying a single lot or two would prove profitable.

I'd like everyones opinion on the hot trend of RV CONDO LOTS that are 

springing up everywhere. Own your own rv lot. I know most of us bought 

our coach so we could move about freely. But could these be an 

investment? Or are they folly. I've heard the baby boomers are coming! 

Perhaps the hayday of big RV's are yet to come. Let's hear it I think 

this could be and intersting debate.
