DIMINISHED VALUE - THE APPRAISER IS JUST THE FIRST STEP

DIMINISHED VALUE - THE APPRAISER IS JUST THE FIRST STEP  

"Automobile insurance policy" means a policy providing third-party coverage for property damage liability. "Diminished value" means the actual or perceived loss in market value or resale value which results from a direct or accidental loss. Diminished value is an element of property damage under an automobile insurance policy for third party claims. If a release or full payment of a claim involving a repair to a motor vehicle is executed by an automobile insurance policy claimant, it should not bar the right of the claimant to promptly assert a claim for diminished value if the diminished value was directly caused by the accident and the diminished value could not be determined or known until after the repair or attempted repair of the motor vehicle. This first step is to obtain an automobile diminished value appraisal from a licensed appraiser. As the quality of diminished value appraisals can vary greatly, the state of licensure is unimportant. The vehicle owner should be afforded the opportunity of obtaining the best possible report from a properly credentialed appraiser.. A state-issued appraisers or insurance adjusters license provides credibility to the appraisal report. Other certifications from private companies, associations or organizations do not signify expertise or fiduciary responsibility as they are merely pay-for-credentials concerns.

AUTOMOBILE APPRAISER FOR A BANKRUPTCY IN FLORIDA - ASSIGNING A CORRECT FAIR MARKET VALUE IS THE KEY TO A PROPER APPRAISAL



AUTOMOBILE APPRAISER FOR A BANKRUPTCY IN FLORIDA - ASSIGNING A CORRECT FAIR MARKET VALUE IS THE KEY TO A PROPER APPRAISAL



FORT PIERCE, Florida - In a bankruptcy proceeding, the court-appointed trustee routinely assigns a value on your vehicle based on published resources like the blue book or NADA guide without regard for the condition of the car or truck itself. Some bankruptcy attorneys are diligent in advising their clients to protect their important assets but many are not so it is up to you to do your due diligence. As an automobile appraiser, it is my job to inspect your car in order to determine its true fair market value in the real world. That means, essentially, that I consider every nick and scratch, all damages to the interior, glass, trim, wheels and tires as well as every mechanical problem that necessitates repairs. These include malfunctioning radios, heaters, A/C units, check engine lights and other defective items that serve to devalue the vehicle. Repairs from previous collisions are also, of course, important to consider as a bad Carfax also makes a car worth less in the eyes of a potential used car buyer. 

The cost for an automobile appraisal is $125 per car with service throughout South Florida. Hopefully, it will provide you with the means for retaining your vehicle in order to begin the process of rebuilding your credit without the worry of having to lose the means of transportation you depend on.
