Our North Carolina license

North Carolina license certificate issued to Jonathon Andrew Thomas, with the home address redacted

The certificate as North Carolina issued it. We've removed the licensee's home address; nothing else is altered. To confirm it's current, check North Carolina's license lookup ↗ — that record, not this copy, is the authority.

What a North Carolina license means for your claim

North Carolina requires vehicle appraisers to hold an active state credential before they can act in insurance appraisals. SecondAppraisal maintains the required North Carolina licensure, so when you invoke your policy's appraisal clause we can represent you the way North Carolina law expects — and you can verify our credential directly with the state.

North Carolina's total-loss framework is governed by N.C. Gen. Stat. § 58-63-15; N.C. Gen. Stat. §§ 75-1.1, 75-16, 75-16.1; 11 NCAC 04 .0418; N.C. Gen. Stat. § 58-33-26(a); N.C. Gen. Stat. § 20-71.3 — official source ↗.

Why work with a licensed appraiser in North Carolina

  • Independently verifiable — our credentials are public record. Verify them with the state before you engage us.
  • Appraisal-clause ready — when you invoke your policy's appraisal clause, your appointed appraiser presents your side of a binding valuation process.
  • State-specific expertise — total-loss thresholds, valuation rules, and consumer rights differ by state; we work North Carolina claims under North Carolina rules.
