Appraisal Types
For large collections or estates, I offer on-site appraisal services in the comfort and safety of your home, office or bank. Evaluations can be performed while you watch.
To establish the average retail replacement value for your jewelry and provide a basis for obtaining insurance coverage for loss, damage or theft.
To establish the Fair Market Value for your jewelry and provide a basis for establishing tax liability and/or the distribution of the jewelry between the heirs.
A Fair Market Value appraisal is requested by an owner who wishes to convert their jewelry item(s) into cash.
This process involves more than placing a monetary value on your jewelry. It is a step by step consultation of understanding the value of your jewelry and the appropriate secondary market to sell your jewelry.
