Nebraska Diminished Value Appraisal — Recover What Your Vehicle Lost After an Accident
Even after professional repairs, your vehicle can lose market value once its accident history appears on Carfax or AutoCheck. If your crash happened anywhere in Nebraska—including Omaha, Lincoln, Bellevue, Grand Island, and Kearney—a Nebraska diminished value appraisal helps you document that loss and pursue fair compensation. SnapClaim provides court-ready, data-driven appraisal reports trusted by Nebraska insurers, personal-injury attorneys, and small-claims courts statewide.Does Nebraska Allow Diminished Value Claims?
Third-party (at-fault driver’s insurer)Yes. When another driver is at fault, diminished value (DV) can be recovered as part of your property damage—the measurable difference between your vehicle’s pre-accident and post-repair market value, supported by credible appraisal evidence.
First-party (your own insurer)
Generally no, unless your policy specifically includes DV coverage. Most policies exclude it under collision or comprehensive.
