Certified Vehicle Appraiser/Certified Diminished Value/Lemon Law Appraiser
Appraisal Reports:
A standard appraisal provides a value of the vehicle at the current time. The appraiser inspects and photographs the condition of the vehicle and collects any information from the owner that could affect its value. He then rates the vehicle on a universal scale of condition.

The appraiser researches websites, auctions, “For Sale”, publications like “Old Cars”, “NADA” etc., and consults with experts, to establish the value range of the vehicle. From all this information, a value is placed on the vehicle, and a formal Appraisal is prepared.

A pre-purchase appraisal includes all of the activities of a standard appraisal, but also includes an observation of the mechanicals on the vehicle. This includes items like checking lights, signals, brakes, radio, heater, AC, etc. The depth of this inspection is based on the information requested by the potential purchaser.
A diminished value appraisal establishes the amount of value that a vehicle may have lost due to an accident, sub standard restoration, Lemon Law issues, Fraud, etc. This is usually done in cooperation with an insurance company, or an attorney.
