Nick and his team here have been an amazing help. Couldn’t be easier to interact with and kept me informed all along the way. I was suggested their service by the autobody shop after an accident and had no idea that I could get back some of my cars depreciation. Would highly recommend their services!
Why Vehicle Appraisals Matter in Georgia
- Diminished Value Claims: Georgia law allows diminished value claims, meaning you can recover compensation if your vehicle loses market value after an accident—even if it has been fully repaired. Studies show that vehicles lose 10-30% of their pre-accident value.
- Total Loss Settlements: According to Georgia Department of Insurance data, many insurers undervalue total loss claims. Our independent third-party appraisals ensure Georgia drivers receive fair compensation for total loss vehicles.
- Classic & Luxury Car Appraisals: Georgia has a growing classic car market, with a 14% annual increase in collector car sales, especially in Atlanta, Savannah, and Augusta. Accurate appraisals ensure proper insurance coverage, resale protection, and estate valuation.
- Post-Accident Inspections: Georgia law requires insurance companies to disclose repair estimates, but many insurers fail to identify hidden damages. Our inspections help protect car owners from unreported structural issues that impact safety and resale value.
