Of course these things are of no use if we can’t collect from the renter if damage does occur. To make certain we will be able to collect, each renter must pay for the rental in advance plus leave a Damage Deposit. The renter also signs the contract authorizing us to charge any balance due on their credit card. With this credit card authorization, the customer can’t successfully dispute our charges to their credit card company.

Every RV is clean, full of fuel (gas and propane) and water as well as extensively inspected before releasing it to the renter. The renter signs acknowledging that the RV is in good condition and that they agree to return it full of fuel and clean. If they fail to do so, we clean it and or fuel it up and charge the renter accordingly. Our Check In form clearly states that we have 5 days to inspect the unit before refunding the renters damage deposit. This gives us enough time to check the unit carefully for any hidden damages.

Delivering the RV: We conduct an extensive walk-through on the coach with the renter and use an extensive check list to ensure all systems and operability are covered. The renter must sign the Operating Instructions Sheet. In addition, we take several digital pictures of each unit just before it goes out. This precludes renters from coming back later and saying damage was pre-existing, or that something broke or got damaged was because we didn’t tell them how to operate it. In addition, each renter is required to read and sign our Terms and Conditions. These terms and conditions were written to protect the RV, the owner of the RV and Paul’s SE Arizona RV Rentals LLC. Thus, they clearly spell out what the renter is responsible for and the penalties involved if they don’t adhere to them.

Hands down, this is the single biggest concern of RV owners. The long and the short of it is that the renter is legally on the hook for almost everything. The only exceptions are the normal wear items. Each renter is screened extensively. When we gather extensive information on potential renters, enter the information into our computer, and get answers to over 30 questions and record them, such as home and work address, home and work phone numbers, social security number, driver’s license number, auto insurance company, agent and policy number plus many more. When we take the reservation, we complete background checks of the potential renters credit and driving record.

The amount of income your RV generates from consignment depends on many factors. Based on the Size, floorplan, and number of beds, owners can make as much as $20,000.00 per year off the rental of their RV. In addition to the income, there are many tax benefits to our program. We make no guarantee as to how much money our owners will earn, but remember this.. We don’t make any money unless your making money.. So… We are going to do everything possible to generate revenue for you.

The answer is YES! Once you have enrolled your RV in our program, you’ll be able to derive many tax benefits. Check with your accountant/tax preparer about how you can benefit from these tax benefits:

1. Depreciation– Most of our owners use a 5 year depreciation schedule for income tax purposes. Many can take 52{9e95cad1042ba50828a1a353e2643de1ee66a265f5fc54455b2553fef6c0e674} depreciation during the first 2 years alone.

2. Expenses – You’ll be able to deduct insurance premiums, maintenance costs, extended warranty costs, storage fees, the cost associated with stocking your rv with our Convenience packs and any upgrades you might want performed to your motorhome. These items become business expenses.

3. In some states you may be reimbursed for any Sales and Use tax you paid when you bought the RV. This is because renters pay transaction privilege tax on the rental.
