If you have a boat or other type of watercraft, you want to get the most money possible for it when you decide to sell it. Likewise, if you want to buy a water vehicle, then you want to get the best price you can on the vehicle that you choose to purchase. The smartest way to get both or either of these is to find the best used watercraft values Seattle has to offer through a watercraft appraisal.
If you need insurance for your used watercraft, you need an appraisal to give to various insurance companies. You won’t have to work with an insurance appraiser who is not familiar with appraising watercraft or who doesn’t have access to a database of current, comparable sales. With an independent appraiser, you’re much more likely to get a fair market value for your vehicle for your policy.
Our appraisers have appraised many types of watercraft. In fact, they are extensively trained in appraising several kinds of vehicles, not just cars. They are experienced in the industry and can help you get an accurate valuation of your vehicle.
Get an appraisal before you buy insurance. You can get one whether your watercraft has been damaged in an accident or not. If it has been damaged and it was not your fault, you can file a claim with the insurance company of the at-fault party. This is called a diminished value claim, and it is the difference between what you could have sold it for before the damage happened and what you could price it at afterwards. This can help you lesson the pain of having damage done to your watercraft by getting your money back that you lost as a result of the incident.
Should you want to put your watercraft on the market, an appraisal can help you figure out exactly what to sell it for. The appraisal can bring in buyers faster by helping you not overprice it and scare buyers off. It can also show buyers the quality of your vehicle in detail, and it will give them faith in the fact that it really is worth every penny.
If you’re facing a legal situation such as divorce, bankruptcy, financial audit, or estate settlement, or if you want to donate your vehicle for tax purposes, an appraisal can make those proceedings go more smoothly. You will need to turn in an appraisal with your tax return if you donate your vehicle to charity.
