Loss of Value Assessment

Post Repair & Claim Audit
      

Loss of Market Value is the difference in a vehicle's value just before an injury and that vehicle's value just after repairs.  This loss is part of your total property damage claim.  

The four measurements of
Loss of Value include:

  1. Diminished Value: The Actual Cash Value (ACV) of the vehicle one second before the loss and the ACV one second after the loss.
       

  2. Loss of Market Value: The value of the vehicle before the loss less the value of the vehicle just after repairs
        

  3. Claim Related Loss of Value: Loss of value due to repair operation omissions or under repairs
        

  4. Repair Related Loss of Value: Loss of value due to poor quality workmanship or incomplete repairs

If you feel your vehicle has NOT been fully repaired or has deficiencies you may have suffered a greater loss of value [Post Repair & Claim Audit]

Assuming that all repairs were made to industry standards
Direct Appraisal can:
  • Identify the comparable vehicle market
     

  • Establish the fair Pre-Loss Market Value of the property  
     

  • Document the amount of damage or injury to the specifically assigned property  
     

  • Establish the Post Repair Value or Fair Market ACV of the property
     

  • Assess the difference of the ACV (Actual Cash Value) of the surveyed vehicles 
     

  • Report the assessed differences in the Pre-Loss ACV and Post Repair ACV to determine any amount of Value Loss the specific property may have suffered as a result of the remaining evidence of repairs.
