no, it should go down
ANSWERNo, it shouldn't go up or down (check with your insurance agent) but since it's worth up to 40% less than a comparable clean titled car you won't get the full price of the car if you total it again! Depending on its age and your insurance rates it might be best to just get liability coverage.try this site where you can compare quotes from different companies: insureinfo.us

What happens if you buy a car unaware of salvage title?
what happens if you buy a car unaware of salvage title? well, if it was from a dealer you have recourse. if it's from a private seller, too bad...UNLESS they sold you the car with a clean title when they knew it was salvage. did you look at the title before you bought the car? if it was clearly branded as salvage or totaled you're out of luck but if it was a clean title when it actually wasn't you can try and get a refund from the seller or sue. If you sue you will have prove the seller knew the title was salvage at the time of sale. good luck!!

How do you start a title insurance company in Kansas?
You need a license to produce title insurance, of course. Next, you need to find a company that is willing to either provide you with title searches, or buy into the records of another company, which can be very expensive. You have to get with the Insurance Commissioner to file rates and of course, you will have to be approved to issue policies with an underwriter. These are the main issues.
How much does a salvage title affect the value?
A salvage title can lower a vehicles value by 50% of KBB. Part of the mystery of buying a used car is uncovering the auto's "story". A car that is accident free, theft free, and has a low number of owners is worth more than the opposite. Vandals, thieves, and the 10th owner tend to care less about the vehicle than the person who proudly picked it up new from the dealer. Make no mistake, a salvage title is issued by an insurance company because of money. It either costs less to replace it rather than repair, or it can't be fixed economically enough to justify it. Other situations include theft. If a car is recovered after the insurance policy has paid the owner the title can be branded as salvage. The insurance company then retains ownership of the vehicle and it is often auctioned. So then why does a salvage title lower value so much? Because you, the uninformed consumer can't tell why it was branded salvage. You can be told anything, but the title only says salvage. Its up to you to decide its value. As with anything buy with caution and know that it will also change your resale value. Also, check with your insurance agent because the second total loss could be yours.
