RV dealership buys two lots

The company that owns and operates R’nR RV Center in Liberty Lake has purchased two vacant lots next to its large service center and showrooms at 23203 E. Knox Ave.

RJCB Investments LLC paid $500,000 for the lots, buying the property from Pring Corp., of Spokane. The two lots will give the dealership three extra acres.

It already owns the 14 acres along Knox where it has two large service buildings and a showroom and parts department building. Those were also purchased from Pring Corp.

The extra land will be used for storage and parking, said R’nR RV Centers General Manager Jerry Wagner.

Guy Byrd of  Cornerstone Property Advisors brokered the sale.

Hissong and Hurtado also operate South Hill sushi restaurant Ginger. They plan to open another food place in downtown Spokane later this fall, Hissong said.
