Why You Need An Appraisal
-
Insurance
An appraisal documents the existence, condition, and replacement value of your belongings. -
Estate
An appraisal is necessary for a taxable estate. One must efficiently catalog the property to provide an appraisal that meets the IRS requirements.
-
Divorce
An appraisal is used for equal distribution of property that is based on fair value. -
Donation
An appraisal is recommended to substantiate a donation to a charitable organization of $1,000 and is required by the IRS for anything above $5000.
Authentication Services
As consumers become more conscious of the environmental impact of the fashion industry, the resale market continues to grow, outpacing traditional resale. The Pre-Owned Luxury industry is estimated to have a value of $500b by 2030. Protect your investments with proper verification both before and after a sale.
-
When selling
Trust sells. Verified, authentic items are worth more on the secondary market -
When buying
Protect yourself. Only with documentation that an item is counterfeit can you recoup losses on a fraudulent sale. Better yet, have the item authenticated before you purchase. -
Business Services
