The Four D’s in Personal Property Appraisals

As hard as we may try, we may not be able to adequately prepare for all of the pitfalls of life. A professional personal property appraiser plays a crucial role in navigating what is often referred to as the “four D’s”: death, disaster, divorce, and debt.

death and personal property appraiser help

A professional personal property appraiser can help determine:

  • an overall opinion of the value of an estate for equitable distribution
  • potential federal, state or local tax liabilities
  • value of specific items at the executor’s request

 

disaster and personal property appraisal help

A professional personal property appraiser can help determine:

  • the overall retail replacement value of personal possessions and collections before a disaster strikes
  • whether an insurance company’s policy and/or coverage is accurate and adequate
  • an opinion of value utilizing a “hypothetical condition” after a disaster strikes
  • the value of objects that did not survive the disaster

A professional personal property appraiser can provide an opinion of value to assist with the equitable division of property.
