For litigation: Sometimes when your trying to sell off a car, some courts would ask you for paper with showing if it has had any history of damage or repairs. No matter the extent of repairs done on the automotive with original parts, you will still need to provide such a paper work.
For Diminished value: Another very important use case of the appraisal is to get the diminished value of your automotive. Diminished value simply refers to the new value your automotive has acquired after suffering from a damage or an accident. Is it is important for you to know your diminished value so that your automotive is not sold for lesser than its actual price. Most insurance companies don’t want you to understand what a diminished value is, and then they pay you off with an amount that is lesser than how much you are meant to take in the case of a total loss of your vehicle, but understanding the diminished value of your vehicle or automotive will make you know the actual worth of your car after it has been fixed.
