When looking to purchase a used camper, a few things to look for is water leaks from the ceiling. Look for spots on the ceiling, around any windows, vents, and the floor near any slide-outs. Then water leaks around the toilet, tub, shower. Run the water in all the sinks and check for leaks. Pull out the awning and check it.

Make sure water tanks don't leak. Check all mechanical appliances. Brakes, tires, lights and etc. also. Tires, brakes, wiring and such can be fixed reasonably cheap compared to water leaks. You might want to crawl under it too and look for rust and road damage too and the conditon of the fasteners that attach it to the frame and
the condition of all the seems, joints and opening in the exterior to see if it is showing sign of stress starting to warp its shell and which would be evidenced by distortions in these areas.

Don't be afraid to crawl under it and look for sagging floor/ insulation, wiring hanging, and other unusual stuff. Most new campers/ MH have some little defect or two. This will take some time, but well worth it. Allow a few hours to check it all out. The refrigerator takes a couple hours just to get cold. Here's a good tip: Take a thermometer with you.
