You may want to read the INSURANCE thread that is going on in this forum right now. They talk about finding similar Casitas on which to base your appraisal.

Or, an RV dealer in your area — although it's seldom that you see one on a lot, so there's a good possibility that they may not be helpful either.

Don't know if this may help but the Recreational Vehicle Blue Book® (www.rcvaluesonline.com) has been published for professional use continuously since 1936. With over 70 years of RV valuation experience I’m sure they could help. Unfortunaetly you have to subscribe for one year…. and the cost is… almost $100.00! Kinda steep when the Kelly Blue Book is offered on line for free. Maybe a local dealer or even the Casita plant may have a copy and can share the info? Good luck in the search.

Danadude: Your best source of actual pricing for used Casitas in right here in this forum in the classified section. Casitas are seldom, if ever, sold as used units through RV dealers, and the values listed in Kelly Blue Books and other such sources are inaccurate particularly for Casitas. The values in such books and on line are based on a percentage of new value, and they lump these low-depreciation Casitas in with the so-called stick-built units. The outcome is that Casitas are quoted at much lower prices than they actually bring. Those dealers guides are inaccurate for other units, too. For example, all small motorhomes hold their resale value better than the large motorhomes. Hope this is of some help. Cordially, Mike
