Who is Carpe Aluminum RV and what do you do?

 

Carpe Aluminum RV is a nationwide Airstream sales and consulting company that helps owners sell their Airstream trailers and helps buyers find the right pre-owned Airstream.

Led by Sean Crimmins, an Airstream Master Certified professional with over 9 years in the Airstream industry, we specialize exclusively in Airstream trailers. We understand how condition, upgrades, model year, and market demand affect value, and we use that expertise to help sellers price and position their Airstream correctly.

 

We help Airstream owners sell their trailers safely and confidently through professional listings, targeted marketing, buyer screening, and support through negotiation and closing. We also work with buyers who want guidance when purchasing a pre-owned Airstream.

 

Our approach is honest, transparent, and client-focused - designed to create smoother transactions and better outcomes for both buyers and sellers.

 

When you work with us, we help with things like:

• Determining realistic market value
• Preparing your Airstream for presentation
• Marketing and screening inquiries
• Supporting negotiations
• Guiding you through the Bill of Sale and closing process

 

Our goal is to make buying or selling an Airstream organized, smooth, and stress-free - with a trusted expert in your corner the whole way.

Are you Airstream dealers or brokers?

 

We are **consultants**, not traditional dealers. We don’t operate like high-pressure brokerages or big-lot RV dealerships. Instead, we work closely with clients to:

 

• Prepare and market Airstreams for resale

• Help buyers evaluate models and pricing

• Provide guidance through negotiation and closing

 

Think of us as your trusted Airstream advisors.

Do you work with clients nationwide?

 

Yes - we assist buyers and sellers across the United States. Many of our clients complete the entire process remotely with our guidance, photos, video walkthroughs, and documentation support.

How does the selling process work?

 

Here’s a simple overview:

 

1. We discuss your Airstream, history, condition, and goals

2. We help determine realistic market value

3. We assist with photos, videos, listing presentation, and marketing

4. We screen inquiries and support the negotiation process

5. We help guide you through paperwork and secure closing

6. We offer guidance to each buyer post sale for as long as they own the Airstream

 

Our goal is to make selling organized, safe, and stress-free.

How long does it usually take to sell an Airstream?

 

It depends on the model, price point, time of year, and condition. Well-priced and well-presented Airstreams often move quickly. We’ll always give you an honest assessment, not unrealistic promises.

How do you determine the value of an Airstream?

 

We look at:

 

• Current national sales data

• Market demand

• Model popularity

• Condition & maintenance

• Upgrades & modifications

• Location & timing

 

Then we provide transparent pricing guidance so you understand the “why” behind the numbers.

Do you help buyers find specific Airstreams?

 

Yes, absolutely. If you don’t see the right Airstream in our current inventory, we can search on your behalf and leverage our nationwide network. Just tell us what you’re looking for: model, layout, must-haves, and budget, and we’ll help you find the right fit.

Can you help me decide whether an Airstream is right for me?

 

Yes. Airstreams are wonderful - but they’re not the perfect match for every travel style. We’re happy to talk through towing, layouts, maintenance needs, and what ownership is really like so you can make an informed decision.

 

---

 

Do you assist with inspections, financing, or delivery?

 

We can help guide you toward trusted resources for inspections, financing, and transport when available. We’re not the lender, transporter, or inspector ourselves, but we help you navigate the process safely.

What types of RVs do you work with?

 

We specialize in Airstream travel trailers and touring coaches. In select cases we may also support resale or purchasing guidance for other high-quality RVs.
