Not what you asked, but if you don't need full time ownership, why not be a renter yourself instead?
We've rented in the past and it's worked out OK. It's not the same as owning (which we have also), but there are advantages -- along with inconveniences -- to renting.
We travel/tour a lot, so prefer owning compact MHs. When we treated parents or other family members to trips with us, we rented larger RVs for extra space. It's expensive for sure (particularly mileage charges if driving long distances), but in long run it's not that bad compared to owning a motorhome that only gets used a few times a year.
There has been a lot written lately about the growth in RV rentals. Like most here, I wouldn't rent out a personal RV, but would certainly consider not owning one at all and renting as needed.
