New Hampshire Diminished Value Appraisal — Recover What Your Vehicle Lost After an Accident
Even after professional repairs, your vehicle can lose resale value once its accident history appears on Carfax or AutoCheck. If your crash occurred anywhere in New Hampshire—including Manchester, Nashua, Concord, Dover, and Rochester—a New Hampshire diminished value appraisal helps document that loss and strengthen your insurance claim. SnapClaim provides court-ready, data-driven appraisal reports trusted by New Hampshire insurers, personal-injury attorneys, and small-claims courts statewide.Does New Hampshire Allow Diminished Value Claims?
Third-party (at-fault driver’s insurer)Yes. Diminished value (DV) is recognized as a recoverable property-damage loss when another driver is at fault. The at-fault insurer must pay the difference between your vehicle’s pre-accident and post-repair market value.
First-party (your own insurer)
Usually no, unless your policy explicitly includes DV coverage. Most collision/comprehensive policies exclude it.
