Common questions
Before you request an appraisal
Can an independent appraiser review a total loss offer?
Yes. An independent valuation can review the factors behind a total loss offer, including comparable vehicles, mileage, condition and equipment. Contact the office to ask what an appraisal would include.
Do I have to accept the insurer's first valuation?
You can ask the insurer to explain its valuation and point out information you believe is inaccurate. Some insurance policies provide a formal appraisal process, but the options and requirements depend on your policy and applicable law.
How much does a vehicle appraisal cost in North Florida?
Fees can depend on the vehicle, the documents available, and the type of appraisal requested. Contact Marty Smith for details about available services and pricing before proceeding.
What if my vehicle has already been repaired?
A completed repair may still leave questions about diminished market value or repair quality. Ask the office whether a diminished value assessment or post-repair inspection may fit your circumstances.
