Has anyone successfully recovered a diminished value claim from a major insurance company? My son was rear ended in a snow storm in Colorado this week. His car is 5 months old. At fault driver with State Farm. Anyone gotten money for this?

I have not but know there are people that will negotiate this for you for a fee based on the value of the car. Search it out on Google or Linkedin

Yes, I received diminished value claim for the other party’s fault of hitting the rear end of my car. It wasn’t the amount I expected, but nevertheless insurance has its own way to calculate the amount and reduce their liability.

How much did you get, what kind of car, and how old was it at the time?

I try to hide it from my boyfriend, but its impact is flowing into my personal life.

I just heard recently that if you refinance and your house appraises at 20% more than the amount owed, you can remove PMI. Is this correct? Getting a divorce and trying to keep the house but moving from a VA to a traditional loan and would rather not pay PMI if I don’t have to. House was purchased for $460k no money down (VA loan), refinanced at $450k to lower payments $400/month, now have $430k left on the loan... would it have to appraise for $516k?
