What's New in 2009? Stimulus Savings
Keep your purchase agreement for your 2009 federal income taxes! The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act economic stimulus legislation includes a provision that allows a portion of the sales or excise tax paid on the purchase of a new motorhome to be deducted. The deduction is attributable to taxes applying to the first $49,500 of the purchase price. Plus, if you are in a state with no sales tax, you can also deduct other fees or taxes imposed by the state or local government. Individuals with an adjusted gross income of up to $125,000 and joint filers with an adjusted gross income of up to $250,000 are eligible for the deduction. And it's available whether you itemize or not!
Always check with a qualified tax advisor to see if you are eligible for these deductions.
Deduct your Interest
For the vast majority of RV buyers, the interest on their loan is deductible as a second home mortgage. The RV must be used as security for the loan and provide basic living accommodations such as sleeping area, bathroom and cooking facilities. Virtually all RV types - motorhomes, travel trailers, truck campers and even most folding camping trailers - are equipped with these accommodations and eligible for the tax savings.

Whether you have the perfect credit score, or a more challenging credit history, our business manager, Amanda Skjeie, will find the right RV financing option for you.
We work with several lenders to bring you the most competitive and flexible financing options around. We will do whatever we can to help you get the monthly payment and loan term that best suits your budget.
- We offer financing and are authorized agents for several large major RV banks including US Bank, Bank of the West, Citizens Bank and several others.
- We generally provide a credit application to these banks and allow them to compete for the lowest rate.
- All of our loans carry no fees at closing, no closing costs and no points.
- In most cases, the interest can be deducted for tax purposes by qualifying as a second home.
- We can generally do terms of up to 20 years! Pre-payments can be made in full or in part, at any time, without penalty. All of our loans are conventional fixed rate loans.
- We offer both monthly and bi-weekly payment options. The bi-weekly payment option will save you thousands over the course of your loan by making a half payment every other week. This method is extremely convenient as your payments are debited electronically and sent to your lender on your behalf. It makes for easier budgeting, but more importantly, saves you interest and will dramatically decrease the life of your loan and improve the equity you have in your new RV.
Recent Go RVing studies show that, factoring in the cost of RV ownership and fuel, families can save 27-61% on vacation costs by traveling by RV, so by investing in an RV today, your family can enjoy many years of quality vacation time together -- all while saving money generally spent on airfare, hotels and restaurant meals. And the on-the-road adventures create priceless memories that will last a lifetime.
The bottom line is that if you are thinking of buying an RV, you should check financing options to maximize your purchase enjoyment. You'll be on the road enjoying your New RV or Preowned RV before you know it!
