The staff at St. Lucie Appraisal care about doing a good job which resulted in our obtaining a fair price for our totaled Tesla. Thank you.

Franklin is rude, Unattentive, and unknowlegable about his car appraising, resulting in diminished returns for his clients. The whole time pushing us to close the case for far less than what we paid for the car. Negotiated down with out consulting us, It's almost as if he gets a cut from what the insurance company doesnt pay out.
Response from The St Lucie Appraisal Co
"Our client was [Member Name Removed] who hired us to fight Allstate Insurance Company which lowballed her Tesla total loss. This individual, [Member Name Removed] has begun a mission to write as many bad reviews of our company as possible. and he claims to be [Member Name Removed] husband. [Member Name Removed] has declared his intention to smear our company "all over the internet" but his allegations are false. As appraisers, we are hired to place a value on a vehicle and then to assist the customer in obtaining a fair settlement from the insurance company. The customer apparently feels that his car was worth the amount he paid for it when he wrecked it 7,000 miles later. That is also a false assumption. No insurance company would pay that amount and I certainly never led the customer to believe that they would. We [Member Name Removed] not be coerced into committing fraud by inflating the value of a motor vehicle. I never promised, either verbally or in writing, that I would be able to obtain any set amount for [Member Name Removed] totaled car. I did promise, as I do with all customers, to fight on their behalf for a fair settlement. He also had the option of having an umpire assigned but he declined to take advantage of that. Allstate offered $63K, we obtained $76K for them."

The method of determining a reasonable diminished value was quite fair and reasonable. It contained a lot of detail and sources to determine the methodology. It was done as an independent appraiser that was objective and was treated as such by the insurance company. I was able to reach a fair settlement with the insurance company.

Service was outstanding. Received a phone call shortly after making payment. I answered a few simple questions and they took it from there. Price is more than worth it for the thorough evaluation, which was provided.

Excellent communication from start to end. He had an excellent grasp and knowledge of these types of appraisals. He provided an accurate and comprehensive report which was useful in negotiations with my insurance company.
Response from The St Lucie Appraisal Co
"This review from a Tesla owner is an exceptionally rewarding compliment. Tesla diminished value and loss of use appraisals are particularly difficult due to the newness of the brand and lack of information from which to rely upon. It is also gratifying to learn when one of our customers is successful in a diminished value claim since the insurance industry is fighting so hard to defend against them."

Report was ready in just a few days. Let's hope it brings a settlement from the insurer.

"Thank you, [member name removed]. Doing an automobile diminished value appraisal for a Tesla S is a lot more difficult that for an average car because there are so few of them. Your confidence in St. Lucie Appraisal is most appreciated. If we can help you further by interceding on your behalf with the insurance company please do not hesitate to ask.
