Why should I advertise with you ?
Our slogan says it, "Classifieds that sell lots". RV Lots Trader
is a unique classified advertising site dedicated to nothing but RV Lots:
sales, rentals, real estate agents and properties wanted. We offer superior
advertising format, client friendly presentation and a professional
operational format second to none. Our Ads are reviewed and screened before

satisfaction is guaranteed. Our pricing is very reasonable. We get results !
This is the agreed place to fill your RV Lots advertising needs. RV
Real Estate Corp operates other websites dedicated to other facets of real
estate for RVs.
I found a free classified advertising site !
It is not uncommon to find free advertising on the Internet. Like many
things in life, you generally get what you pay for. Please compare the
traffic, the format and general quality of your experience. Ask yourself
just how many RV Lots are offered there? Where do you think buyers or
interested folks are going to visit? When a copy of your ad is printed...how
will it look? Compare.. RV Real Estate has organized to keep our costs
reasonable and therefore your advertising dollar goes a long way here.
Consider that a free ad is not worth much of anything if no one interested
in RV real estate will find it !
Can I print your Ads on my computer ?
Yes! We have gone to great lengths to assure a "printer
friendly" format for our Ads. This means if your printer is typical and
will print on letter paper you only need to click your print button and a
reasonable copy will issue. We know you want to make copies to study and
show friends. Cavat: We expect that not every printer / computer combination
will function as anticipated, so some setup may be required with your
machine.
What is RV Real Estate ?
RV Real Estate is a Florida Corporation dedicated entirely to real
estate for RVs. That is all we do ! RV Lots Trader is one of several web sites owned and operated by RV Real
Estate. Please visit here for information, a forum and learn all about RV Lots

activities are limited to advertising and related information at this time.

business entity is a Florida Corporation, RV Real Estate Corporation. The
Corporation has been in business six years.
How can I search for RV properties?
Search by selecting features you want on a simple form. Simply check what
you want and Submit. See the Classifieds page. You may also search by
keywords. If you use Google or MSN you are familiar with this capability.
Keyword search is located on a variety of pages on this site. This
capability is also offered on select websites to allow a search of our Ads,
from another site.
In general for regular searching the form based search works best. Why?
We have included those features peculiar to RV properties and can
generally provide targeted result because of this. In addition it’s
easy to use and keep track of your selection criteria. We recommend.. try
the form search first... if you can.
Search results are displayed (below the form) on the Classifieds page. As
you browse different Ads neither your form data or results are lost. It’s
easy to modify your search criteria and Submit again. Everything you need to
search, view, print and reply is available to you right there. It’s simple
and fast!
What properties can I advertise?
The short answer is any property where you can use your RV. Obvious
examples include, lots in a private RV park, or lots in a subdivision just
for RVs. Less obvious are individual properties where because of zoning or
deed restrictions you are permitted RV use or in the alternative properties
where you are able to use your RV because of the lack of zoning or deed
restriction. Other situations include, houses or housing like subdivisions
specifically including RV ports or otherwise inclusionary use of RVs. Some
mobile home parks allow RV use and qualify. We welcome (big & small)
homes with RV ports. Small acreage with or without structures qualifies if
there is some compelling reason one would locate an RV there. Those reasons
might include RV facilities, proximity to recreation, and home base
potential. We want to be inclusive not restrictive, but we do want Ads
directly linked to the RV.
What sort of guarantee do you have?
A money back guarantee for time related advertising is a tricky thing. In
general, after your ad is published if you are unhappy in the first two or
three days we will refund your money and pull the ad. No questions! From
there to 10 days of published ad time we will look at any special situation.
After 10 days your money is not refundable. We will generously consider
exceptions for mistakes we have made, and hardship.
How much does it cost?
Our base advertising rate is $29.95 for 3 months. You can
advertise for a year for $ 59.95. A 3 months renewal is $20.00. Visit here

reserve the right to run at least a stock photograph of your RV Park, if

How will interested folks contact me?
We require an Email address for contact purposes. It is not published on
the Internet. It is not disclosed to interested parties unless you place it
in the text of your Ad. Smart sellers include a phone number in the Ad at a
minimum. See here for tips on getting in touch. It is easy to include an
Email address in the text too. Note: Your Email address will not be

detail.
I lost my User Name or Password ?
Call us. Be ready to provide detail information related to your
advertising order. We want to be sure you are really you.
What do I do when I sell?
Please contact us so we can identify your advertising as sold (rented)
(found). You will not want to continue to receive Email and phone calls. We
don’t want to mislead browsers.
What is an AddPage ?
Several web pages here are dedicated to explaining
our exciting new
concept.
How do I advertise to RENT?
Describing your property is the same: sell or rent! Perhaps when renting
less detail is needed. Don’t mention facilities your tenant can’t use!
Omit tax data. Use your monthly rent in the "price" block. You
must explain in the text of your Ad what time you wish to rent, when,
deposits required, any special arrangements needed and in general convey the
tenant situation for which you are looking. Try to show what your tenants
can expect in your photos.
How do I advertise to Want ?
Here is your chance to describe your dream RV Property ! Imagine you were
trying to sell it. How would you describe it? Do you have a photo or two
that shows what your dream area might look like? Include it !
Don’t be too restrictive. Try to make clear must haves and then include
other desires too. Be realistic in selecting a price. If you want poor
response... set a very low price! We provide plenty of text space. Describe
what you really want..... It’s probably out there.
Keep in mind: You will get response from RV property owners that are
casually considering selling or just beginning to make firm sales plans. If
you wish to really take advantage of your advertising, thoroughly
familiarize yourself with your area of interest to maximize your potential
for understanding and finding a great value. Do your homework !
How does an Agent advertise ?
Our Ad format was designed for real property. It is adapted for personal
or office Ads. We suggest you select features which apply to property in
your sales area. Take advantage of all four photos to tell about you, and
the RV Parks or attractions your buyers might enjoy. Use your location data
as if you were a Park. Use the header and text to tell your story. Consider
the use of an AddPage if you are advertising individual RV properties as well.
We will publish your Agent Ad at no charge to you if you are regularly advertising several RV
properties. Call us for more information.
Missing State map on your Maps page?
Sorry! That means we don’t have a listing in that State right now. If
you place an Ad for real estate in that State when your Ad is active a State
map will be too. We add or activate maps as we have Ads for that State. We
hope you understand. Our maps are intended to support our advertisers.
Can I advertise real estate outside of the USA?
Not at this time but please call to discuss Canadian or Mexican property
you wish to advertise. We would like to learn more about this and are
interested in adding this capability at a future time.
My RV lot sold really fast! Can I get some money back ?
If your Ad was to run a year and you sold your lot in the first two weeks
it ran, we will be sympathetic and refund at least part of your payment. No
refunds for a three month ad that sold fast, that’s a minimum. Special
situation ? Give us a call... In general we don’t do time related refunds.
After all, you got what you advertised for!
