What is diminished value?
Diminished value is the difference between what a vehicle was worth before an accident and what it's worth after — even after professional repairs. Carfax, AutoCheck, and other vehicle history reports record the accident, which can affect resale value.
In Texas, drivers who weren't at fault may be able to file a third-party diminished value claim. An independent, certified DV appraisal documents the change in market value so you have an unbiased number to work from.
Do you qualify?
The strongest DV claims usually meet most of these:
- Vehicle is 5 years old or newer
- Under 100,000 miles
- No prior accident history (before this one)
- Accident was not your fault (third-party DV claim)
- Repairs have been completed
