Early 2018 I purchased a Sportsmobile sprinter campervan in Washington DC and drove it all the way back to Minnesota. I loved the adventure travel lifestyle and wanted to be closer to the action for mountain biking, fly fishing, free camping, kayaking and more! Little did I know this first van would quickly evolve from a personal hobby, to a side business, to a booming RV rental marketplace in just a few years!
Although I have owned more than a dozen camper vans, RVThereYet.com now has more than 20,000 RVs and is now based on renting motorhomes and travel trailers from private individuals out of their driveways at home.
99% of individually owned RVs are “latent assets” collecting dust, when they could easily be leveraged to make $2000 to $3000 per month during peak season. Not to mention a giant tax deduction as well (check with your accountant, of course)!
