We perform a meticulous on-site visual inspection lasting 1 to 3 hours, examining the body, undercarriage, and interior. We utilize a precise 6-tier grading system to assess condition, identifying unreported accidents or poor bodywork. Please note that while we are experts in condition and value, we do not perform mechanical inspections.

Following the on-site inspection, you will receive a preliminary verbal summary immediately. A comprehensive, USPAP-compliant digital report is typically delivered within 7 to 10 business days. Expedited options are available if you require a faster turnaround for time-sensitive transactions or legal matters.

Yes. All our reports conform to the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP). As an active candidate member of the ASA Automotive Specialty Group, our valuations are recognized as 'Qualified Appraisals' for IRS tax guidelines, insurance 'Appraisal Clause' disputes, and court authority requirements.

We specialize in retrospective valuations for vehicles that cannot be physically inspected. By utilizing detailed photos, service records, and VIN data, we can accurately reconstruct the pre-loss value of a vehicle, providing the defensible documentation needed for total loss or theft insurance claims.

Standard vehicle valuations within 50 miles of Denver are $750 for the first vehicle and $700 for each additional vehicle. Diminished Value reports also start at $750. Valuations for exotic, limited production, and historically significant vehicles start at $1,000 due to the extensive research required.

We help clients navigate lowball settlement offers by invoking the Appraisal Clause found in most insurance policies. We provide objective, data-driven reports and negotiate directly with the insurance carrier or an independent umpire to ensure your vehicle is valued accurately, often avoiding the need for litigation.
