What to document first

Start by defining why you need the appraisal: sale, insurance, estate settlement, donation, family division, or general identification. The purpose determines the level of documentation needed.

Before contacting a service, gather clear photos, dimensions, marks, labels, damage, provenance, and any prior invoices or appraisals. This helps separate quick screening from a written appraisal.

Value factors

Value depends on identification evidence, condition, completeness, market demand, intended use, and whether the assignment requires a written report or initial screening.

No public market evidence are asserted here. Use verified sold records, specialist databases, and object-specific evidence before relying on any market range.

When to request an appraisal

Request a professional appraisal when the item may be insured, donated, sold, inherited, divided in an estate, or reported for tax purposes. Include photos and documentation so the appraiser can recommend the right level of review.
