Why It Matters
Damage history can depress appraised value and tighten LTV and insurance terms. Clear, professional repairs with documentation can mitigate impacts.
What to Provide
- Repair records, work orders, photos, and sign‑offs.
- Engineering reports or DER approvals, as applicable.
- Follow‑up inspections and test flights.
Financing & Insurance
Lenders and insurers weigh severity, location of damage, and repair quality. Expect lower LTV or higher premiums. See LTV & appraisals and insurance requirements.
