Caravan owner sells mobile home for £35,000 only to find it listed for £79,000 weeks later

Maureen McShea, 73, sold her caravan for £35,000 after being diagnosed with cancer. The holiday park had initially valued it at £25,000 but increased the offer after negotiations. Shortly after the sale, McShea discovered the same caravan listed for £78,995 on the park's website. She had purchased the caravan for £85,000 just two years prior, using her NHS pension savings. McShea's situation reflects a broader issue faced by caravan owners, many of whom report significant losses when selling their mobile homes. Hidden costs and unexpected fees have also been common complaints among former owners.
