📘 LESSON 1:
Your Insurance Company’s First Offer May Not Be The Final Value
Most insurance companies use automated valuation systems like CCC or Mitchell to calculate vehicle values after a total loss.
But automated systems don’t always see:
✔ Local market demand
✔ Vehicle condition
✔ Aftermarket modifications
✔ Specialty equipment
✔ Real-world replacement costs
Understanding how vehicle values are calculated can help you make informed decisions before accepting a settlement offer.
Because fair market value should reflect the REAL vehicle — not just an automated report.
