Appraisal
Sample process for property inspection
Typically, our appraisers personally inspect the property and then conduct research and market verification back at the office. In some cases, we can perform appraisals remotely using provided images, descriptions, and documentation.
All appraisal work is billed at a rate of $200 per hour.
There is no charge for the first hour of travel from our offices, and a fee of $75 per hour is applied thereafter.
The fee for an on-site inspection is $150 per hour, and this amount will be credited towards the final payment if you choose to proceed with the appraisal.
During the "walk-through," the appraiser may provide comments on the potential resale value of the objects.
Antique Arena provides services such as:
