What Is a Total Loss Appraisal?
A total loss appraisal is an expert opinion of your vehicle’s true fair market value, based on comparable vehicles in your local market, mileage, features, and condition before the accident. If the insurance company undervalues your car, this appraisal becomes your most powerful tool for getting a better settlement.

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 by $1000, you are eligible for a 100% money back guarantee. You face no additional financial risk when working with Total Loss NW.
