Full owner review is $600 when the estimate is under $50,000 and $800 when it is $50,000 or more. The $99 Snapshot is credited toward the $349 Comparison or a full review on the same loss within 30 days.

Every review is read and written by Aaron. Software helps us organize the file. It never decides what goes in it.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Counsel sends one estimate

    One reconstruction estimate in, plus the opposing estimate if one exists. That is enough to start.

  2. Step 2

    We check for conflicts

    If we have already worked on this loss in any other role, we decline and tell you.

  3. Step 3

    Aaron reads every line

    Against the standards adjusters are supposed to follow and against what the file documents.

  4. Step 4

    Written review comes back

    What is missing in cost, sequence, scope, and documentation, and whether further work is warranted. The initial file review is $600.

Property owners can send their own estimate through the For Property Owners page, nationwide. Start with a $99 Gap Snapshot, a short punch list on one estimate. If you hold both the adjuster estimate and a contractor estimate, the $349 Adjuster vs Contractor Comparison sets them side by side with talking points for each conversation. The full written review is $600 under $50,000 and $800 at or above $50,000. The Snapshot fee is credited toward the $349 Comparison or toward a full review on the same loss within 30 days. To talk first without paying, use the contact page.

Common questions

Are you a contractor, a public adjuster, or a law firm?
None of those. Property Loss Pro is an independent consulting firm. We do not sell repair work on files we consult on, we do not negotiate with the carrier as a public adjuster, and we do not give legal advice.
When is anything invoiced?
Nothing is billed when you send a file. We complete the conflict screen first. If we accept the engagement, an invoice is issued through Wave. Unused fees are refunded if we decline before work starts.
Do you handle commercial losses?
Yes. We review residential and commercial property losses. Remote, file-based technical review is available nationwide for property owners.
Should I hire a public adjuster instead?
A public adjuster negotiates for you and typically takes a percentage of your claim. We don't negotiate and we don't take a percentage. You pay a flat fee and get the documentation to negotiate yourself or hand to your attorney. Many clients use both.
What if the review finds nothing missing?
We tell you that plainly. That answer has value too.
How long does it take?
We reply within one business day after you send the file with the conflict result and next step. Review timing is confirmed when the file is accepted.
