Selling

Sell My Caravan

Selling a caravan is different from selling a house — the market is specific, the buyers are fewer, and the route you choose decides how much of the price you keep.

This section explains the realistic options for static and touring caravans, with the costs and paperwork that sellers regularly miss.

The routes to market, honestly compared

For static caravans, the park itself is usually the first option you are offered — and it is not always the best. Park-sold resales are convenient but often carry the highest commission, and the park controls the terms.

Brokerages and private listings reach more buyers and typically cost less, but require you to handle viewings, paperwork and conversations yourself.

  • Selling back to the park — quickest, most convenient, often most expensive
  • Caravan brokers — wider reach, fixed fees or commission, less control
  • Private listings — keep the most money, do the most work
  • Trade-in against a new unit — convenient, but the figure is rarely in your favour

Frequently asked questions

How much commission does a park take on resale?+
Park commissions on resale vary and are set out in your ownership agreement. Always read how your specific park handles resale before you sign — and get any verbal promise about resale costs in writing.
Do I need paperwork to sell my caravan?+
Yes — the ownership agreement, proof of purchase, service and gas safety records, and any park transfer forms. A clean file makes for a smoother sale and a better price.
What is the best time of year to sell?+
Spring and early summer generally attract the most buyers, when people plan summer seasons. If you are selling a static caravan, your park’s resale terms may also influence timing.
