Depends. A flooded car is never going to be as good as one that was not flooded. Same for Campers.
The floors of most campers are OSB or similar "engineered wood" for strength with light weight. Most campers are for limited use, not living in day to day.
A lot of campers were flood damaged over the past several years (like Hurricane Harvey & other various major floods) and sometimes show up for sale without disclosure.
Walk around and feel for soft spots on the floor. Look at the cabinets and see if they are solid or saggy. Breath deeply and it smells moldy / musty / wet, it may very well have issues.
If you can check the roof, look for patches or extra sealant on seams.
If you can get a view under (like a oil change pit) look for corrosion or other obvious water damage from flooding / high water.
