Determine the Scope of Work

We start by understanding the purpose of the appraisal—whether it’s for insurance, financing, taxation, or legal matters. The scope is customized to meet specific requirements, property types, and the appropriate appraisal methods.

Property Inspection: Our certified appraisers assess the business’s personal property, including equipment, machinery, and inventory. We conduct a thorough inspection, documenting all assets with photos and measurements to ensure an accurate valuation.

Data Collection: We gather detailed information about the business’s personal property, such as age, condition, and functionality. This is followed by a market analysis of similar assets, considering factors that influence value, including depreciation and market demand.

Evaluation & Analysis

Sales Approach: We compare recent sales of similar business assets, adjusting for differences to determine fair market value.

Cost Approach: We calculate the replacement cost of the assets, adjusting for depreciation and wear.

Income Approach: For income-generating equipment, we estimate value based on the potential return on investment and current market rates.

Valuation Process: Market value is determined by combining the sales, cost, and income approaches. Adjustments are made to ensure accuracy, and when multiple approaches apply, an average is used.

Report Preparation: A comprehensive report is prepared, including an executive summary, an analysis of the business personal property, and the final valuation conclusion. The report undergoes an internal review to ensure accuracy and compliance with industry standards.

Delivery & Client Communication: The final appraisal report is delivered on time. We offer support to explain the findings and answer any questions. Ongoing support is available for future needs, such as insurance updates or additional appraisals.
