Can you really rely on a guess, book value, the word of a non-certified person, or dealer who may have a “hidden agenda”? The answer is “NO”. You cannot. Why not? Relying on a guess, book value, auctioneer, or the word of a non-certified person is inaccurate and will not withstand scrutiny.

Reasons Why You Need A Certified Machinery & Equipment Appraisal…
- Business Owners need an Appraisal for insurable value, selling, financing, expansion, and strategic growth.
- CPAs need a Certified Appraisal because the IRS requires a Certified Appraisal by a Certified Appraiser! A Certified Appraisal is also needed when helping their clients convert from a C to S Corporation, Estate and Gift Planning, Trusts, Sarbanes-Oxley, and FASB 141/142.
- Bankers and Lenders need an Appraisal in support of loan and lease decisions to substantiate and collateralize a loan. Especially the Small Business Administration’s new SOP’s that require a “qualified” equipment appraisal.
- Attorneys need an Appraisal to substantiate accurate and realistic values that withstand IRS and Court scrutiny.
