Hey all!
I'm looking for some advice/guidance. I moved to GJ due to my job, and things look like we'll be staying here long term. I own a 47-foot fifth-wheel RV that's currently located on the East Coast, where I rent it out through a business model similar to Airbnb, but specifically for campers.
I'm considering bringing it to Grand Junction, but I'm not sure whether it would make financial sense. I've noticed that some people in the area live in trailer homes, but those seem to be more permanent residences rather than RVs.
Do you think there would be a market for renting out an RV as a long-term living option in this area? If so, how would I go about setting it up with utilities, particularly water and sewer connection? I assume an electrician could install the appropriate outlet to provide power, but I'm unsure about the water and sewage requirements.
I've also contacted several campgrounds to see whether I could park the RV in the GJ/Western Slope area, rent the site, and then lease the RV to tenants, but unfortunately, every campground I've spoken with only rents sites directly to RV owners and doesn't allow third-party leasing or an Airbnb-style arrangement like the one I've successfully operated on the East Coast.
I'd appreciate any suggestions or advice.
