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 North Carolina
- Diminished Value Claims: North Carolina follows a “diminished value recovery” law, meaning drivers have the right to claim compensation for lost vehicle value after an accident—even if repairs were flawless. Research shows that vehicles lose between 10-30% of their market value after an accident. We help you recover this loss.
- Total Loss Settlements: According to NC Department of Insurance data, many insurers undervalue total loss claims. Our appraisals help North Carolina drivers negotiate for a fair payout and avoid being shortchanged.
- Classic & Luxury Car Appraisals: North Carolina’s classic car market has grown by 12% annually, with cities like Charlotte, Raleigh, and Asheville seeing rising demand for collector vehicles. Proper valuations ensure accurate insurance coverage and resale value protection.
- Post-Accident Inspections: North Carolina is a diminished value state, meaning insurers may not disclose hidden damages after an accident. Our inspections uncover undisclosed issues that could impact safety and value.
