ValuePros Fine Art appraiser Olivia Nugent measuring a limited edition print in Miami last week. The appraisal process involves an onsite examination where we gather digital images, descriptions, and any documents of origination that may be available. Ahead of us in the office is where we analyze the examination information, identify the item, perform the market research that secure the valid comparable sales data that supports the value, and finally produce the USPAP compliant report.
For insurance value updates and less complex works of art we often certify the current fair market value or replacement value without an onsite examination – identifying items from digital images, a description, and valid documentation. This remote appraisal procedure saves clients time and reduces the appraisal fee, while delivering the certified report that is required for insurance, estate settlement, donation, and divorce. Whether you require an onsite appraisal or prefer a cost saving remote appraisal Olivia and the Nugent Family team of appraisers are ready to serve you. We have been serving the South Florida community since 1976.
