Our goal is to get you what you're owed for the loss in value to your vehicle. Many insurance companies will not pay you the amount your vehicle actually loses in value and will determine the diminished value using a "less than accurate" formula known as "17c". This method was created for a specific court case and does not apply to your claim. We will provide you with a detailed, non-biased report based on actual facts and figures related specifically to your claim. We work for the client and with the insurance company to get the best possible outcome.

Description of Work: I can't say enough good things about this company! I was involved in an accident with my new GMC Yukon with AAA Insurance, of course they low balled the offer to me on my diminished value so I reached out to Drew at ADV Appraisal Services for assistance on the claim. He was prompt with inspecting the vehicle and determining the diminished value to be much higher than my insurance company had offered me. Drew was very detailed with how the process would work and backed his guarantee without a question. He determined my loss of value to be quite a bit more than what the insurance company was trying to force me to take, once he provided me with the report and instructions on how to proceed I took the report and submitted it to the insurance company. At first my insurance did not want to pay anything else but after ADV spoke with the manager they were forced to reach out and hire an additional appraiser to get a second opinion through my appraisal clause (which I didn’t know existed until Drew explained it to me), the sad part is they told me this would take up to 30 days to provide, fortunately it only took 2 weeks and when they came back they were still low. Drew was able to negotiate that amount and get me a lot more than what I was originally offered, we wound up settling for a much better amount than I could have ever gotten on my own. I was very pleased with the service I was provided and feel it was well worth the investment. I would recommend ADV Appraisal Services to anyone that is having problems getting what they are owed/entitled to on the vehicle’s loss of value after being involved in an accident. I know who I will be calling if I ever get into another accident!!!

I was rear-ended in late December and was concerned about getting a fair price for diminished value after my car was repaired. I called this company on February 1st and Drew immediately responded and met me the same day to take pictures of the vehicle and collect a $250 check. I did not hear back from him so on February 9th I called and left a voicemail - he immediately texted me to say he would call me at 6:00 p.m. – He never called me back. I texted him again with the name & phone number of the MetLife Rep assigned to handle my diminished value. On February 10th he sent me a text at 9:15 p.m. and said he had just left a message for the MetLife to call him over the weekend. 8 days later, on February 18th I texted him for an update. 2 days later, February 20th, he said he was out of the office & asked me if had reviewed the appraisal document. I immediately responded to the text and emailed him explaining that I had never received a document from them & he said he would find out why I had not received the document. On February 22nd I finally received the appraisal document and I received a call from MetLife stating that Drew was not responding to their phone calls, so I called Drew at 6:00 p.m. & left voicemail said he was with a client and would call me afterwards – which never did. I then sent a harsh text asking why he did not call me back and he texted me back saying he forgot. On February 27th I received another call from MetLife Diminished Claim Rep saying he was still unable to reach Drew which I could relate since he had been so unresponsive to my emails and calls as well. On February 28th I emailed Drew and had sent him some info that I had researched on diminished value using Kelly Blue Book on line and asked him to call me and to this day I did not receive a response from him. I called him on March 6th and got a text saying he was in traffic and would call. Later that evening I received another call from MetLife stating they were unable to reach Drew. At this point I was fed up, so I negotiated my own value with them and signed the release on March 7th. On March 9th I received a text from Drew asking me to send him the contact information again for the MetLife Rep. I didn’t even bother to respond. This was a total waste of $250.00.
Description of Work: I needed someone to complete an appraisal and negotiate a fair price for diminished value from an accident where I was rear-ended.
