What Happens During an RV Inspection

 

A professional RV inspection is a structured, multi-step evaluation of an RV’s major systems, safety components, and visible condition. The inspection process is designed to give buyers an objective understanding of the RV before completing a purchase.


Below is a clear explanation of what happens during a professional RV inspection, from scheduling through report delivery.

Overview of the RV Inspection Process

 

The RV inspection process follows the same general steps regardless of where the RV is located. While inspection locations may vary, professional inspection standards and reporting remain consistent.

Understanding the RV Inspection Process

 

Understanding the RV inspection process helps buyers know what to expect before making a purchase, especially when buying an RV located in another city or state. Whether the RV is in Missouri, Southern Illinois, Kentucky, Indiana, or Tennessee, the inspection process follows the same professional steps to ensure consistency and accuracy.


Below, we explain what happens during our RV inspection and how to hire an RV inspector who serves buyers across multiple states.

The RV Inspection Process

 

Scheduling the Inspection: Basic details are confirmed, including RV type and inspection location.  Once your inspection is scheduled, you’ll receive an email from HomeGauge with your inspection details.   


Agreements & Payment: After receipt of this email, you will review and sign two documents electronically through HomeGauge:

  • Inspection Agreement
  • Mutual Disclosure


These agreements outline the scope and limitations of the inspection and must be completed before the inspection date.
Payment is handled securely through our third-party payment gateway. Your inspection is not finalized until payment and the signed agreement are received. 


  • Inspection Day: The RV Inspection is conducted on-site, including major systems and safety components.  
  • Inspection Report Delivery: Your inspection report will be delivered electronically, typically within the same business day of the inspection.  

What Happens During an RV Inspection

 

 

During an RV inspection, major systems and components are evaluated to identify safety concerns, operational issues, and visible defects. The goal is to provide buyers with a clear understanding of the RV’s condition before finalizing a purchase.

While inspection locations may vary, the inspection standards and reporting process remain consistent regardless of where the RV is located within our service area. 

What an RV Inspection Does and Does Not Include

An RV inspection is a visual, non-invasive evaluation. It does not include disassembly, destructive testing, or repairs. The purpose is to identify visible issues and operational concerns, not to predict future failures.


How to Hire an RV Inspector

When deciding how to hire an RV inspector, buyers should look for experience, training, and a clearly defined inspection process. This is especially important when purchasing an RV located outside your immediate area.


A professional RV inspector serving multiple states should be familiar with inspecting RVs at dealerships, private sellers, and storage facilities across a wide region while maintaining consistent inspection standards.

Our RV inspection process is the same across all areas we serve. Learn more about RV inspection services in your state:
