RV brokers Guide - dealerships and rv brokers, here's help choosing the right RV broker first
RV Brokers and what they do for you
A "Motor Vehicle Broker" as defined by Florida Dealer License law statute 320.27 (d) procures rv's for the public. A motor vehicle broker is primarily an advertising and marketing company designed to bring rv buyers and sellers together who then close the sale independently or with the brokers oversight. An RV broker does not control the price of rvs it advertises, does not handle title or sales tax paperwork, does not take possession of recreational vehicles for sale, does not hold inventory, does not take title of rvs for resale, does not display rvs on any of its properties. RV brokers are paid commissions agreed upon before the deal starts thus ensuring a good price for both buyer and seller.
