Protect Your Loan Portfolio from Insurance Under-Indemnification
Insurers undervalue total loss claims by $4,300 on average and repairable claims by $8,900. VVA gives lenders the data to fight back—instantly and at a fraction of traditional appraisal costs.

When Borrowers Default on Damaged Vehicles, Lenders Absorb the Loss
If a lienholder repossesses a totaled vehicle with a $30,000 payoff but the insurer only offers $22,000, the lender loses the $8,000 difference. Most lienholders don't realize they have the right to challenge that number.
Right to Appraisal
As a loss payee, lienholders have the same policy rights as the insured to invoke the Appraisal Clause and challenge undervalued settlements.
Under-Indemnification Is Rampant
Insurance carriers routinely undervalue claims. Without independent data, lenders accept lowball offers that erode their loan recovery.
The Cost of Inaction
Across a portfolio of hundreds or thousands of loans, even small per-vehicle losses compound into millions in unrecovered value annually.

Once a lienholder repossesses the car, they become the owner, and as a loss payee in the policy, they have the same rights as the insured to invoke the Appraisal Clause. VVA Valuation Tools provide the data necessary to determine if it's in their best interests to exercise the Right to Appraisal.

President, Auto Claims Specialists
Our VVA Valuation Tools help automotive lenders understand when a carrier has under-indemnified a loss and whether it makes sense to invoke the Right of Appraisal as the loss payee. By gaining a better grasp of the vehicle's true value, lienholders can mitigate their losses on defaulted vehicle loans that have sustained damage prior to being repossessed.

Recover Thousands per Vehicle
Here's how VVA helped a lienholder recover nearly the full payoff amount on a repossessed vehicle that the insurance carrier severely undervalued.
“If VVA's Valuation Tools determine the vehicle is actually worth $29,000 plus tax, that difference is reduced to nearly nothing after the Right to Appraisal has been invoked. A lot of lienholders don't realize they have the right to invoke the Appraisal Clause, or they don't know how to do it. The documentation provided by VVA makes it easy to understand when it's cost effective to invoke that policy right!”

Also Eligible: Diminished Value
Repossessed vehicles with prior collision damage may have inherent diminished value, even if repairs were completed perfectly. VVA's DV Report analyzes the pre-collision fair market value to determine additional amounts owed, providing ready-to-use documentation to recover that loss.
