What “No Fees” Actually Means

We are a spread-based brokerage. We agree on the dollar amount you take home, and we earn the difference between that number and the final sold price. That’s it. No hidden line items at closing. Note: government fees — title transfer, registration, and any applicable state taxes — are set by law and the buyer’s responsibility, not ours.

What We Hear Every Week

The Real Reasons RV Sellers Call Us

📈

“My RV is worth WHAT?”

RVs lose roughly 25% leaving the lot and 36–38% by year five — and pandemic buyers paid peak on top of that correction. NADA gives you a starting point, not a market price. We pull actual sold-comps from the Havasu market and walk you through what buyers are paying right now for your specific unit.

🏭

“I still owe more than it’s worth”

Negative equity is the most common situation we see on financed RVs right now. Bring your payoff statement; we coordinate the lender payoff at closing. You don’t pay off the loan before listing. The buyer doesn’t navigate a lien-encumbered title. We’ve handled every major RV lender — the mechanics are routine.

🔐

“The last consignment lot did nothing”

Consignment lots that bury your unit behind their own inventory, don’t photograph it properly, or let it sit unlisted are a documented failure mode. At The Branch, your unit is actively shown, properly photographed, and listed on the channels that drive RV buyers — not parked in a back corner and forgotten.

📅

“Storage is costing me $150+ a month”

Average RV storage in Lake Havasu runs $150–$200 per month. At 18 months, that’s $2,700–$3,600 to store something that could be sold instead. Add insurance and loan payments on an unused unit and the carrying cost case for selling fast is overwhelming. We get it done.

🌎

“We’re done with the lifestyle”

Medical change, employer return-to-office, family priorities — the reasons people exit the RV lifestyle are as varied as the people living it. Whatever yours is, we help you convert the asset to cash cleanly and quickly without the Craigslist noise, the scam texts, or the strangers in your driveway at 8am on a Saturday.

📄

“I don’t know how the money moves on a financed sale”

Step one: lender quotes payoff. Step two: buyer’s funds clear. Step three: lender releases the title; balance comes to you. It’s a clean sequence when someone who’s done it before is running it. We have. Many times.

Selling Your RV

10 Questions Every RV Seller Asks

The Branch is our dedicated RV consignment lot at 921 N Lake Havasu Avenue, purpose-built for motorhomes, fifth wheels, travel trailers, toy haulers, and the gear that goes with them. You bring the RV in, we walk it together, agree on a selling price, sign the consignment agreement, and the unit goes on the lot in front of buyers actively shopping in Havasu — a market with one of the highest concentrations of full-time and seasonal RVers in the country. We handle photography, listings, walk-up buyers, showings, paperwork, and closing. Same family, same 40+ year track record, same on-time payment every time.
“No Fees” means exactly what it says: no upfront listing fee, no monthly lot rent during the standard consignment window, no marketing fee, no photography charge, no documentation fee at closing. We are a spread-based brokerage — we agree on the dollar amount you take home and earn the difference between that number and the final sold price. The number we agree on at signing is the number you receive when the unit sells. The only costs that are not ours to absorb are government fees set by law — title transfer, registration, and any applicable state taxes — which are the buyer’s responsibility. Out-of-state buyers may not owe Arizona sales tax.
Class A, B, and C motorhomes; fifth wheels; travel trailers; toy haulers; truck campers; pop-ups; and select tow vehicles. The Branch tagline is “No Fees RVs & More!” — the “more” covers RV-adjacent recreational gear and vehicles. We’re selective about what goes on the lot because the lot’s reputation is what makes it work for sellers — but the RV and recreational category is broad and we work across all of it. All consignments require a clear title or a current payoff statement in the consignor’s name at day of drop-off.
We use NADA RV values, current market listings on RV Trader and comparable channels, recent sold-data from the Havasu market, and the specific equipment and condition profile of your unit — solar setup, slides, awning condition, tire age, interior wear, generator hours, mileage on motorhomes, and any aftermarket additions. RV pricing moves with the season; full-timers shop year-round but the Havasu snowbird market peaks October through April, and we factor that into the listing strategy. We walk you through the comps and recommend a price; you set the final number with our reasoning in front of you.
Cosmetically presentable and mechanically honest is the bar. Minor items — a deep clean, an awning patch, a slide-seal refresh, a tire swap, a roof inspection — usually pay for themselves in faster sale and a stronger price. If the RV needs major repairs (slide motor, generator overhaul, transmission work on a motorhome), we have an honest conversation about whether to fix it or price it as-is. We can typically point you to local shops in town that we’ve worked with for years. We’d rather price an RV honestly with disclosed needs than dress one up and lose the deal at the buyer’s pre-purchase inspection.
Call ahead so we can coordinate the walk-through and have the consignment paperwork ready — drop-offs go faster when we’re expecting you. Bring the title (or a current payoff statement in your name), current registration, your government ID, both sets of keys, all owner manuals and service records you have, and any accessories included in the sale. The more documentation you bring, the faster and stronger the listing — buyers pay for confidence, and a complete records folder builds confidence quickly. One firm requirement: we don’t accept units without a clear title or a current payoff statement in the consignor’s name. No exceptions.
Our standard consignment window is 90 days, and a fairly priced unit in good condition usually moves well inside that window during peak Havasu RV season (October through April). Off-season listings can take longer, and rarer high-end coaches sometimes need more patience to find the right buyer. If a unit stalls past the window, we have the price-adjustment conversation directly rather than letting it sit. The 90 days is a planning number, not a promise — but it’s the number we plan around.
The Branch is an actively managed lot with staff present during business hours. Showings happen with our team present — we don’t hand keys to buyers and let them roam. For questions about specific security details, ask our team directly when you drop off. Regarding insurance: you maintain full coverage on the unit throughout the consignment period and sign a broker agreement. Your policy stays primary during the consignment; we walk through the specifics with you at signing so there are no surprises.
Yes — this is common in the RV market and we handle it routinely. Bring your current payoff statement from the lender along with the rest of your paperwork, and we coordinate the payoff at closing. Buyer’s funds go first to clearing your lien and releasing the title; the remainder comes to you. You don’t pay the loan off before listing, and the buyer doesn’t navigate a lien-encumbered title. RV-specific lenders, marine lenders that handle RVs, credit unions, banks — we’ve worked with all of them.
National platforms generate volume but also generate noise — out-of-state buyers who want video walkthroughs, three rounds of inspections, and shipping quotes; tire-kickers messaging at all hours; scam attempts on high-dollar listings. Facebook Marketplace adds the same noise plus the security exposure of strangers in your driveway. The Branch puts your RV in front of qualified, in-person buyers in a town where RV ownership is part of the culture — full-timers, snowbirds, weekend buyers, and families upgrading. We handle every showing, every offer, every piece of paperwork, every payoff coordination, and the buyer drives it off our lot when it sells. The trade-off is the spread we make; what you get back is your phone, your weekends, your driveway, and an RV that actually sold.

Lake Havasu City RV Market

Why Havasu Is the Right Place to Sell Your RV

Lake Havasu City sits in one of the most active RV corridors in the American West. The mild desert climate, access to the Colorado River and Lake Havasu, and the strong snowbird culture mean RV buyers are actively in the market here from October through April — and a meaningful number stay active year-round. This is not a seasonal city with a dead summer; it is a four-season RV destination with a buyer pool that comes from California, Nevada, Arizona, Utah, and beyond.

Timing matters. The Havasu snowbird market peaks October through April. A fairly priced unit listed in September or October is positioned to capture the front edge of that wave before the competition builds. Summer listings move slower but still move — full-time and local buyers shop year-round, and The Branch has the foot traffic to reach them without the national platform noise.

RV depreciation in 2024–2025 has been significant: units bought at pandemic-era peak pricing (2020–2022) are now competing with 91,000+ new 2025 models on dealer lots nationwide. That makes pricing discipline more important than it’s been in a decade. We price from current data — NADA, RVTrader sold comps, and what’s actually moved in the Havasu market recently — not from what you paid or what you wish it were worth.

The Branch is part of The Boat Broker’s three-lot Havasu operation. Same family ownership, same standards, same on-time payment track record that’s backed every consignment we’ve handled since 1986. Licensed motor vehicle dealer, State of Arizona.
