I actually commented on this video. I think both the inspector and the customer seem to lack understanding of how a Newell is constructed.
I had a similar experience trying to find an inspector to look at our coach before we bought it. I talked to one inspector and they had never even heard of a Newell. Most RV inspectors run between $800 to $1200 and hopefully they know more about sticks and staples RVs for that price. I was fine paying that but when I asked what they were going to inspect it was basically a surface inspection, whatever they can see on the surface, turn on lights, turn on faucets etc stuff like that. I was not concerned with stuff like that, as it’s easy to repair. Anyways from the sound of the end of the video she said that they had a buyer, so hopefully someone saw how good that coach is and purchased it despite the “terrible rot” ?
