What does the appraisal cost ?
Standard Vehicle Appraisal: only $175 plus tolls and mileage*. That's about 1/2 of what some other appraisers charge!
Pre-Purchase Appraisal, which includes the Standard Vehicle Appraisal plus a road test to evaluate drivability (performance, suspension, steering, braking, body integrity) is only $300 plus tolls and mileage*.
Pre-accident, Diminished Value, Lemon law, or Fraud appraisal: only $275 plus tolls and mileage*.
I will provide a discount for multi-vehicle appraisals
*FIRST 25 MILES FREE! Please contact me for actual total cost. To keep your total cost down, I will provide a reduced flat rate for long distances. Please phone 215.620.7434 or email onecarguy9@verizon.net for an actual quote.
How is payment made?
Payment is due at the time of appraisal. I will accept cash, a personal check, cashier's check or money order. However, the appraisal will not be issued until the check or money order has cleared.
If you will not be present at the time of the appraisal (for example, a pre-purchase appraisal and you are out of state), payment is due in advance. In such circumstances, I also accept payment via PayPal. This is particularly useful if you need the appraisal conducted on short notice and there will be no delay waiting for me to receive payment and for the payment to clear. Payments can also be made through Western Union available at many convenience stores and supermarkets.
What do you get for your money?
I conduct a very detailed visual inspection including exterior, interior, chassis, and engine compartment, with particular attention to hidden rust or any specific concerns you may have about the vehicle. I also conduct a mechanical inspection including such items as engine (start, run, accelerate, re-start), exhaust, lighting systems, instruments/gauges, accessories, leaks, etc.
I take extensive detailed digital photographs to be included in my report as needed to show specific details. If you order a road test, I will drive the vehicle to evaluate drivability - drivetrain performance, steering, suspension, braking, body integrity, and again any specific concerns you may have.
I return to my office to conduct a market survey - research the vehicle, price guides, recent collector vehicle auction sales, and other comparable sales to arrive at a current market value. I then prepare my report. The appraisal report, approximately 6 pages, will be very detailed, printed with color photographs, and bound in a clear cover. I will contact you to review my results with you, then mail the final report to you, usually just a few days after the actual appraisal.
