Car Valuation and Types or Car Valuations
CAR VALUATION – DIMINISHED VALUE APPRAISALS
Car Valuation reports for vehicles repaired after an accident
Diminished value is a type of accelerated depreciation that occurs when a vehicle has a loss in value due to the vehicle being involved in 
an accident. This reduction in resale value is a legally covered loss under an automobile insurance policy. Some insurance companies underestimate the true impact of the loss of a vehicle when in an accident.
By law, insurance carriers must conduct a reasonable investigation of your claim which includes a fair review of evidence you submit to them. An appraisal report is what you need to document your loss properly.
CAR VALUATION – FAIR MARKET VALUE APPRAISALS
Car valuation reports of fair market value appraisals can be utilized in a legal or tax matter.
- Divorce / Bankruptcy / IRS Dispute / Tax Dispute / Estates
- Charitable and Donation Car Valuation
Are you filing for bankruptcy and required to file a list of assets? Are you getting a divorce? Is the estate of a loved one being divided? Accurate Auto Appraisers are experienced, licensed, and court admitted experts.
Donating your vehicle is an excellent way to reduce your tax liability. A written car appraisal is required for donations worth more than $5000. Our appraisals are IRS compliant. We will provide you with an IRS form 8283 to file with your taxes.
CAR VALUATION – TOTAL LOSS APPRAISALS
Car valuation reports for vehicles declared a total loss.
When your vehicle is declared a total loss, the insured will make compensation based on its own valuation report prepared by a third-party company.
Usually, the value is underestimated. You have the right to present a report prepared on your behalf that disputes the insurer.
We offer two types of appraisals for total loss valuations – desk review or full filed appraisals – depending on which aspect of the insurer’s report you are disputing
CAR VALUATION – CLASSIC CAR APPRAISALS
Car valuation reports for classic and specialty vehicles
- Classic and Antiques
- Restored Vehicles
- Collector and Custom Vehicles
- Stated Value for specialty insurance policies
Classic car owners want to adequately insure their vehicles. Most insurance policies are actual cash value policies. This is usually okay unless you have a heavily customized or restored classic.
Our reports are accepted by all major carriers. If your car is in storage, we can come to you.
