The Appraisal FoundationAuthorized by Congress as the source of appraisal standardsAppraiseItNow provides total loss appraisal services for vehicles, watercraft, and equipment throughout Nevada, where state law under NRS § 487.790 sets the total loss threshold at 65% of a vehicle's actual cash value before damage. Nevada's exclusion of painting, towing, and electronics costs from that 65% calculation can create disputes between owners and insurers, making an independent, documented valuation especially important. For casualty losses, IRS Form 4684 requires documented actual cash value, and deductions exceeding $5,000 require a USPAP-compliant appraisal supported by IRS Form 8283.
AppraiseItNow serves clients through both online and onsite appraisal options, making it easy to get a qualified valuation regardless of where you are located. Our appraisers in Nevada cover the full state, from Las Vegas and Henderson to Reno, Sparks, and Carson City.
AppraiseItNow covers the major asset classes that most commonly require total loss appraisals in Nevada, including:
AppraiseItNow serves Nevada vehicle owners, business operators, and insurance professionals who need an independent valuation to support a total loss claim, dispute an insurer's ACV calculation, or document a casualty loss for tax purposes. Attorneys handling coverage disputes, fleet managers, and individuals navigating Nevada's threshold exclusion rules also rely on our credentialed appraisers for defensible, USPAP-compliant reports.
What Nevada clients say we are known for
Across 17 published Nevada appraisal reviews, every one from a client who paid AppraiseItNow for an appraisal, the three things they raise most often are that they would hire us again, how much research is visible in the report, and how quickly we answer.
Joe at AppraiseItNow was extremely helpful with my total loss situation and requirements! I contacted him on Saturday of a holiday weekend (Labor Day 2025) and he responded back promptly! He then provided all the intake requirements to support my RV appraisal for insurance purposes which made the information sharing very simple (completed in 5-minutes). His team took the information and developed a comprehensive, industry standard report for me to provide back to my insurance company to ensure I receive the proper value for my RV. This was reviewed and completed within a few business days! Working with AppraiseItNow was a relief and a reasonable price. If I ever find myself in needing an apprasal again I will be a returning customer! I am definitely referring others in similar situation to me and confirming that AppraiseItNow can be trusted to deliver what they commit to! Thank you again for the support to Joe and the AppraiseItNow team!!!
Recreational Vehicle Appraisal for Total Loss
My daughter had purchased a very collectible 2003 Mustang Cobra terminator just 3 months before her accident with 50,000 miles on it, for 30,000 dollars. We were experiencing some very heavy rains and she hydroplaned and smashed into a guard rail and totaled her car. The insurance company offered her $18,000, but we told them that was an insult to this car. We kept going round and round with them but they were not budging. Finally we googled an independent appraiser and found AppraiseItNow! Their appraised value was 26,462. They negotiated with the insurance for us and we ended up with 25,900. They were awesome and helped us get much closer to the appropriate value of the Cobra. Absolutely worth the price we paid. Highly recommended!
Car Appraisal for Insurance Claim
The appraisal was done very well. Since he was a local artist here in Charleston, SC, they took the time to study and review Jim Booth’s art. His work has made him extremely famous, which can make an appraisal challenging, but they did a superb job and clearly explained how they arrived at the appraisal value. I highly recommend Appraise It Now and will use them again for all my artwork.
Artwork Appraisal for Insurance Coverage
AppraiseItNow did an outstanding job appraising my 1998 Bobcat Skid Steer and circa 2010 Yuchai Crawler Dozer. We could not locate a serial number on the dozer, and there were no online sales available, but they were still able to develop an accurate appraisal using known specifications for my dozer compared to other comparable make and model dozers. They diligently researched both equipment items and provided well-documented reports.
Machinery & Equipment Appraisal
I was in dire need of an appraisal for my father's mobile home, which he needed for Medicaid approval. I couldn’t find anyone to do it for a long time, but then I found this company online and decided to give them a try. I’m so glad I did. They were wonderful to work with. I sent the pictures, and within just a few days I received the appraisal. They are absolutely worth the money.
Mobile Home Appraisal
From the start they were very responsive, price competitive, and had a quick turn around time. Thank you so much to Joe who was very sweet in responding to my emails; I am looking forward to utilizing AppraiseItNow for many years to come.
65 percent. Under NRS 487.790, a vehicle is a total loss when the cost of repair equals or exceeds 65 percent of its fair market value immediately before the damage. Nevada's fixed statutory threshold contrasts with states that leave the call to insurer economics.
Painting, replacement of electronic components to manufacturer specifications, and towing. Those charges do not count toward the total-loss threshold, though the insurer still pays them if the vehicle is repaired, so the line items on a repair estimate can decide whether a car totals.
The owner giving up the vehicle must endorse and deliver the title to the insurer within 30 days of accepting the settlement, and the insurer then has 180 days to submit the endorsed title with a salvage or nonrepairable vehicle application under NRS 487.800.
Yes, but the branding still happens. When a settlement leaves the salvage vehicle with the owner, NRS 487.800 requires the insurer to complete the salvage or nonrepairable title procedures before finalizing the settlement, and the Nevada DMV classifies any vehicle past the 65 percent threshold as salvage.
