Appraisals
Every appraisal situation calls for careful consideration for the best approach to accurately express the value of an item or collection. I can assist you to determine what type of appraisal best fits your needs. All of my appraisals are USPAP compliant.

I can perform a wide range of appraisals, from equitable distribution to estate, probate, divorce, trust inventory, insurance coverage, charitable donations, and others. I can come to your home, office, or storage location. I am based in Erie, PA but can travel as far east as Buffalo, as far south as Pittsburgh, and as far west as Cleveland. If you are in the Erie area, I am also happy to meet with you in my office.

TYPES OF APPRAISALS

​
ESTATE APPRAISALS
Whether your appraisal is for a high value taxable estate or simply for equitable distribution, I can assist you with valuing the contents of the estate you are administering.
charitable donation
The IRS may require a personal property appraisal of your non-cash charitable donation. I can help you determine whether an appraisal is required for your donation.
insurance
Insurance companies will often require an appraisal of high-value items prior to listing them on your homeowner's insurance policy. I can accurately determine the replacement cost to help ensure you are properly covered.
equitable distribution
The dissolution of a marriage or business partnership is never easy. Often the attorneys require an accurate inventory and valuation of the personal property involved. I can create an efficient and accurate inventory plus provide accurate valuations for your items to help ensure a smooth settlement.
