What Our Clients Say
Don T (California)- Thank you for your services. I am happy with the total loss valuation appraisal and feel the valuation to be true. When I drive to Tesla supercharger stations, none of the other Tesla’s stand out or is as nice as mine, and I get that comment all the time from Tesla and non-Tesla owners. It was my perfect dream car and is irreplaceable. You just can’t put a price tag on something like that. So it’s very insulting when Geico and CCC tries to value my car at such a ridiculous amount. So thank you for your great work and I will definitely be leaving you great reviews. Franklin was very helpful and extremely knowledgeable. He took his time to explain the process and what I would be expecting before I even hired him. I felt very comfortable working with him and couldn’t be more happy with his services. If you had a car that you loved and cherished and is irreplaceable, and you want to make sure it gets appraised at the right value even though you can’t put a price tag on it…then Franklin and The St. Lucie Appraisal Company is your go to appraiser. Thanks Franklin!
Gino B (Washington)- I know firsthand that if you are reading this testimonial – you’ve had some car problems (stolen, damaged, accident, etc.) You are probably in the right spot.
When my truck was stolen and recovered (with a lot of damage), my Insurance company (USAA), who I thought would be there for me when the chips were down made me a really low-ball offer. After some simple internet searches – it seems USAA has a habit of letting down their insurance customers.
I was pulling my hair out battling it out with USAA’s lowball offer until I found Franklin’s St. Lucie Appraisal team. Franklin quickly assisted me in understanding my rights, my options and provided expert advice and engaged with all parties as my representative in the appraisal process resulting in an award letter almost 3X higher than USAA’s initial low-ball offer. 3 TIMES HIGHER!
USAA initial offer was about $5K – Franklin was able to negotiate with other appraisers and get me a fair Actual Cash Value of $15K through the process. The juice is definitely worth the squeeze folks.
He was consistently available, professional, friendly, and considerate and took the time to understand my claim and help ensure I take the steps that were right for me. Before you go anywhere else – drop his team a line – you will be glad you did.
