Basic Facts:

How can you protect what you own if you don't know what it's worth?

An appraisal is a legal document as important as a will and is the only way to accurately describe and value property. A properly prepared appraisal by a certified, accredited appraiser will clarify questions of property value in any circumstances.

Who and Why:

The descriptions and values made by a certified accredited appraiser assure technical accuracy and appropriate market level valuation. There are many purposes and uses for an appraisal.

Insurance: To prove irrefutable possession at the date of valuation, provide needed protection in the event of a loss, and to assist in establishing proper insurance coverage. Estates/Estate Planning: To clarify questions of value, facilitate the disposition of estate tax reporting requirements, assist heirs with distribution of property; to assist financial planners and related professionals in establishing client net worth, and as a basis for judicious estate planning. Property Division: To assist attorneys and their clients in matters of equitable distribution. Corporate uses in this category include loan collateral. Related Insurance Matters: To assist adjusters by properly identifying and valuing property in damage/loss matters to facilitate claim settlements and avoid disputes. Proper identification and valuation of property assist insurance companies in investigative matters that may save the company monies in claims settlements. Donations: To assist the donor in obtaining accurate, documented valuations that meet Federal requirements and will be accepted by the Internal Revenue Service. General Use: To assist anyone seeking more information about their property, its history, and its worth.
