Know what you’re buying before you commit.

A listing tells you what the seller wants you to know. Deciding whether to buy takes more than reading the advertisement.

LeisureCheck looks beyond the listing to investigate reported model issues, available market evidence and the information supporting the sale. Your report explains the concerns identified, the gaps still unresolved and what they could mean before you commit your money.

  • One-time payment. Online research — not a physical inspection, and it doesn’t replace one.
  • Founded by a caravan repairer with 13 years’ hands-on experience

Know what to ask. Understand what needs checking.

  • Have recurring problems been reported for this make and model?
  • Were relevant recalls or legal findings identified?
  • How does the asking price compare with similar advertised caravans?
  • Which documents have you seen, and what still needs confirming?
  • What should you ask the seller before paying a deposit?
  • What deserves attention during an independent inspection?

Where the evidence supports it, you also receive negotiation guidance and a suggested opening offer.

Some searches produce useful findings. Others leave unanswered questions. Your report explains those limits so you know what still needs investigating.

Why it matters

A tidy caravan can still hide an expensive problem.

Water ingress can develop slowly behind finished walls and be costly to put right once it’s found. A quick walk-through isn’t always enough to tell.

From the founder

Built from 13 years of hands-on caravan repair experience.

After years of repairing caravans, I know the questions buyers often wish they’d asked earlier.

That experience shaped LeisureCheck: bringing together research and practical purchasing guidance to help you investigate a caravan before committing to it.

Founder, LeisureCheck13 Years of Caravan Repair Experience

LeisureCheck is independent and Australian-owned. We’re not a dealer, seller, financier or manufacturer, and we don’t receive referral fees.

Before you pay a deposit

Three questions to ask any seller.

  1. Has the caravan ever had a leak? If so, what was repaired, and by whom?
  2. Can I see the service history and repair invoices? Including when the seals and sealant were last checked.
  3. Is there any money owing on it? A PPSR search can show registered security interests.

Small signs like these don’t prove a fault on their own, but they’re worth asking about — and worth having checked in person.

What LeisureCheck is — and isn’t.

  • Online buyer research. Reports are based on the listing, the details you supply and available research.
  • Not a physical inspection. We don’t physically inspect caravans, and we can’t detect concealed damage.
  • A physical inspection may still be necessary. If a caravan needs hands-on checking, we’ll say so.
