What is Diminished Value? The Hidden Loss.
Diminished value refers to the decrease in market value of a vehicle after it's been in an accident, even if it's been repaired.
There are two main types of diminished value
Inherent diminished value -
This is the loss in value simply because the car has an accident on its history report, regardless of repairs. This is the most common type of diminished value claim.
Repair-Related Diminished Value -
This is the loss in value due to the repairs themselves. Even with good repairs, some buyers might be hesitant about a car that's been in an accident.
Prospective buyers often perceive the car as less valuable due to its accident history, affecting resale or trade-in potential. For not-at-fault drivers, recovering DV ensures fair compensation for their loss.
“Even if your car looks good as new after an accident, it's still lost value. Think of it like a small dent in a brand new phone – it still works, but you wouldn't pay full price for it. That's diminished value, and it's money you're owed.”
