KBB has three different values, retail, private sale and trade-in. I think you would be safe with the lowest value (trade-in) on the look up.

If an asset is sold below book value to a related party it will be seen as gifting and will affect Medicaid eligibility. All the databases are available for review over 5 years and this would show up on state tax records.
