At each of our locations, Empire
Auctions has full-time professionals who are fully qualified, accredited personal property appraisers,
through The Certified Appraisers Guild of America. The CAGA is a
professional accreditation organization providing certification of
personal property appraisers. With members in all 50 U.S. states and 6 Canadian
provinces, the CAGA trains more personal property appraisers than any
other organization in North America, and is known for its high ethical
standards. The CAGA was originally established
as a complementing educational and accreditation resource to the
Missouri Auction School. Founded in 1905, the Missouri Auction School has
provided industry related training since its inception for auctioneers in
general appraisal principles and methodology and is the oldest running
auction school in America.
Working on behalf of the private sector, legal firms, bankruptcy trustees and government, Empire's Certified Appraisal Services can serve many needs: INSURANCE VALUATIONS The valuation at Current Replacement Value of particular assets for continuation within a collection, whose value warrants insurance protection against loss or damage. Current Replacement Value is defined as the price which would be necessary to replace the specified asset with a replacement article of the same standards of construction, materials, quality, condition, origin and age. Replacement of the asset would be deemed necessary either through outright loss of the object or through damage beyond the scope of reasonable professional restoration efforts. Insurance valuations are also a very helpful tool when working with moving and storage companies to ensure adequate protection of your items when in the care of others. FAMILY LAW In situations requiring the valuation of household assets to ensure an equitable division of matrimonial assets, we work with legal firms to ensure expedient results for their clients, under conditions of the strictest confidence. INSOLVENCY Asset valuation for the purpose of asset liquidation. In these situations of financial burden, our frequent sales, which are scheduled every calendar month, ensure a rapid turnaround time from the marketing and sale stage to the final proceeds payment. WILLS AND ESTATES A comprehensive itemization of the contents of an estate ensures equitable asset distribution among the beneficiaries of an estate, as well as unquestionable arm's-length management by the executor. CURRENT MARKET VALUE Current Market Value is defined as the price at which the specified property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under the compulsion to buy nor the compulsion to sell and both having reasonable knowledge of the relevant facts. Home redecorating, empty nester relocation and scaling down needs, long distance relocations are but a few of the motivating situations for market valuations of your assets.
