Per VINdown's modeling, the Salem by Forest River 356QB retains an estimated 48% of its value after five years, ranking #4708 of 5706 RVs & trailers we track. That trails the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class by 7 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Salem by Forest River 356QB sheds about 9% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $74,430 it falls to around $44,140 by year five — a five-year loss near $30,290, about $16.60 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Salem by Forest River 356QB bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
