Got rear ended today on I5
Back bumper damaged a little. Not too bad but going to need a new one. Police report was filed. Am I going to face significant loss of value with accident showing on there?' Thinking about selling it after I get it fixed and going for possibly a 911

Sorry to hear!
The good ole internet! Here's the Washington State statute that allows for diminished value, if the accident was not your fault. It sounds fairly cosmetic, but you know that anybody that would buy the car would thorw any accident in your face, that they found on Carfax, and it will cost you something. Good luck! |

it doesn't matter if the car was hit, keyed, or sunk in a lake. Anything on the carfax will diminish the value.
