Tigard Total Loss Appraiser

If your vehicle has been declared a total loss in Tigard, accepting the insurance company’s first settlement offer may not always be in your best interest. Many total loss valuations rely on broad market data that can overlook local pricing, vehicle condition, or key features. Total Loss NW provides independent total loss appraisal services to help Tigard drivers confirm whether their settlement offer is accurate and fair.

Total Loss Claims in Tigard, Oregon

Insurance companies typically calculate total loss settlements using third-party valuation reports. While these reports are designed to be objective, they often include errors or comparisons that don’t reflect the Tigard vehicle market.

Common issues we see include:

  • Comparable vehicles priced below local market value
  • Incorrect mileage, trim level, or condition ratings
  • Missing factory or aftermarket options
  • Comparables located far outside the Tigard area


These factors can significantly reduce your payout if not reviewed carefully.

How Our Tigard Total Loss Appraisal Service Helps

Total Loss NW works independently for vehicle owners—not insurance companies. Our goal is to provide clear, data-driven appraisals that reflect real market conditions in and around Tigard.

Our services include:

Full review of your insurance total loss valuation

Verification of vehicle details and condition adjustments

Market research using accurate, local comparable vehicles

A professional appraisal report you can use to respond to the insurer

Fast turnaround and clear communication throughout

We focus on accuracy, transparency, and quick turnaround times so you can move forward with confidence.

Our Process

Our streamlined process makes it easy to get the appraisal you need—quickly and confidently. From free assessment to final report, we guide you every step of the way.

01

Free Claim Review

Request a Free Claim Review and I will assess the insurance company’s valuation. I will let you know if the offer is fair or if your vehicle is likely being undervalued. Most reviews are completed within a few hours.

02

Invoke the Appraisal Clause

If the insurer’s valuation seems too low, I may recommend moving forward with the appraisal clause in your policy. If you decide to proceed, I will provide a formal Letter of Representation along with simple, clear steps to follow next.

03

Full Appraisal and Representation

Once the appraisal clause is activated, I take over the entire process. I prepare a full USPAP compliant report, communicate with the insurer’s appraiser, negotiate for a fair value, coordinate the umpire process if required, and keep you updated. My goal is to secure the strongest possible settlement for you.

04

Pricing

Our fee is a flat $550. Most auto appraisers charge a percentage of your settlement along with a fee for the appraisal. We do not do this. This includes the complete USPAP appraisal, full representation and negotiation, all communication with the insurer’s appraiser, and any required umpire coordination. There are no percentage fees, no extra charges, and no surprises.

05

Money Back Guarantee

If your settlement does not increase by at least the cost of the appraisal, you are eligible for a money back guarantee. You face no additional financial risk when working with Total Loss NW.

06

Timeline

Most cases are finished within one to three weeks. Once both appraisers connect, the process usually moves quickly, and an umpire is rarely needed.

Who Should Hire a Total Loss Appraiser in Tigard?

Our Tigard total loss appraisal service is ideal for drivers who:

Feel their settlement offer is lower than expected

Want a second opinion before accepting a settlement

Need help understanding their valuation report

Are dealing with major insurers such as State Farm, Progressive, USAA, or GEICO

If something about the offer doesn’t seem right, an independent review can make a meaningful difference.
