Diminished Value Claim – Good news! The Insurance Company agreed to settle for over $11,000 after having two other companies research the actual cash value of the car and the resale value. They contacted several Porsche dealers who advised them of DV percentages in line with your estimate.

This Porsche 911 had a pre-loss value of approximately $30,000 and had minor damage that occurred in a garage with repairs totaling approximately $3,500. The insurance company initially offered the client $800 for his diminished value before receiving the appraisal from LossValues.
Diminished Value Claim – Good news! Your work payed off and SAFECO just settled for $3,400. That is much better than $500!

Diminished Value Claim – We were successful in receiving our full claim, $5,300. We filed suit against GEICO and collected the full amount plus over $2300 in attorney fees and they settled right off the bat. They didn’t want to fight it as soon as we filed suit.

Diminished Value Claim – With another appraiser’s appraisal, they stopped negotiating around $11,000. (after submitting LossValue’s Appraisal) They offered me $14,000 to pay me off. I told them no. I told them I wanted $15,500 to walk away. They came back and agreed.
T. Tanner – Texas
Diminished Value Claim – Thank you for all of your effort with the appraisal and for the advice. They’ve settled for $13,500. I’ll be sure and recommend you to anyone who finds themselves in an accident!

Diminished Value Claim – Knowing how insurance companies work, I engaged Ken Nix of Diminished Value of Oregon, the same day as my new Subaru was rear ended.
Ken inspected my vehicle at the body shop the next day, and produced a very comprehensive 30 page appraisal report, detailing and providing
supporting documentation with photos etc, to show a Diminished value loss of towards 9k.
I had the repairs done at a shop of my choice using OEM parts.
The shop did a pretty good job, but would you pay the same for a vehicle that had been in a wreck Vs one that had not ? Of course not.
The Insurance Company under protest offered me a Diminished Value award of $2800.00 in full settlement. I refused in writing.
They then tried to stall and wait me out, so I filed in small claims court, and they settled 5 mins before going into the courtroom,
for the sum of $5500.00 plus costs. They knew that armed with Ken’s report and paperwork, they would have no chance of convincing a judge I was not due considerably more
than their lowball offer.
Ken was in my corner all the way, he even came and gave a new Ford truck I was buying from a dealership, a FREE pre-delivery inspection !
Now that’s service.

Diminished Value Claim – I settled for over $5,400.00. The Insurance Company’s appraisal came in with a DV of $4,000.00, but they came up to 20% of the pre-loss value.
Thanks for all your help. –
Subaru Outback – John | State Farm Insurance Agent – Personal Vehicle
Diminished Value Claim – We ended up getting over $2500 for diminished value, plus over 18K for pain and suffering. We could have probably gotten more money for DV if we had held on to the Acura like you advised us to.
In the end we got more than we expected and I’m happy the ordeal has come to an end. Your report was a major factor in getting our money back.
