How it Works
Review:
Clients may provide photographs or previous listings to review. We will arrange a walkthrough of the property to determine the size and scope of the project.

A complimentary quote for the timeframe and cost will be generated for the appraisal project. Once approved, an appraisal agreement will be sent for signature.
Schedule:
A mutually agreed-upon date will be scheduled for the on-site appraisal to catalog, inspect, and photograph the tangible personal property.
Research:
The Appraisers will utilize internet auction aggregator sites and subscription service databases, as well as consult with market experts to determine the value of the items.
Report:
A draft appraisal report and invoice will be sent to the client for review. Once approved, a finalized report will be shared.
