Auto Insurance Appraisers
How to find an "independent valuer Auto" with the statement of stolen cars?
Greetings to all. I had a Lincoln LS 2003 "final" stolen about 3 weeks ago. My insurance claim period was only 15 days and gave me an offer KBB Private Party. First, is that average? I was told other people that their insurance companies give you the total sales value of total loss claims such as stolen or total. They said if I did not like the price, (2K full commercial below) that would hire an independent appraiser and would have to hire an independent appraiser, then is an average between the two. The cost is $ 150-300, which would pay. How to find an appraiser without having the actual car? Is this worth the trouble I can get back 1500-2000?
First, I am surprised that the company used KBB instead of CCC or ADP. Those are two computerized evaluation systems based on actual sales prices vehicle dealers throughout the country. I think you can not access the CCC or ADP database, but I think it would not hurt to ask. Sorry but I have your contact information with me right now. If you can not get access to CCC or ADP want to ask your insurance company to have the long report. If necessary, the offer to split the cost. Your environment should be less than $ 50. I would recommend that before going through the evaluation process. I've handled the complaints that have gone through this process and no fun for the vehicle owner. If you still need to find an appraiser I would suggest trying to locate an independent adjustment company in your area that has a car expert on staff. You can find one of these websites. http://www.claims-portal.com/cdps/ http://www.claimsjournal.com/yellowpages/ http://www.cagworld.com/ http://www.claimspages.com/ Make sure to find out if the license is the evaluator. You should actual cash value (ACV), which is the same as the price of retail, without asking price. Good Luck.
