About Total Loss Northwest Auto appraisers
Total Loss Northwest is a family-owned business led by independent auto appraiser Nico Nix. With deep roots in the Pacific Northwest automotive community, Nico brings years of experience and a personal passion for cars to every appraisal. He grew up surrounded by the industry—his father owns Leverage Auto Appraisals in Oregon, and his brother runs Diminished Value of Oregon. Helping people recover what they’re owed after a loss isn’t just a job—it’s the family trade.
At Total Loss Northwest, we provide one-on-one service, detailed appraisals, and honest guidance. Whether you’re dealing with a total loss or a diminished value claim, you’ll get a real, independent appraisal—not a cookie-cutter report or inflated promises. Just straightforward help from someone who knows the value of your vehicle—because he’s lived it.
