Valuation Services
Our valuation staff consists of licensed, certified and designated real property and business appraisers that provide real estate, machinery and equipment and business enterprise valuation services to all types and sizes of companies throughout our selected market areas.
Market Value Appraisals
Detailed market value commercial appraisals are required for many purposes. Whether the assignment is for financing purposes, to assist in the buy/sell decision process, to establish a basis for just compensation in eminent domain proceedings, estate planning purposes, or to provide support for real estate and equipment assessment appeals, our experienced valuation staff is able to deliver documented commercial appraisals and expert testimony of the highest caliber. For transactions that are federally regulated, we prepare USPAP-compliant reports that conform to the regulatory guidelines of FIRREA, the OTS, and the agencies that correspond to the nature of the asset.
Feasibility Studies
A comprehensive analysis of the cost benefit relationship is an absolute necessity before undertaking any economic endeavor. Our experts gather and analyze all necessary information to determine whether explicit investment alternatives meet specific investment objectives.
Highest and Best Use Analysis
Highest and best use studies are undertaken to determine the optimum use(s) for a specified parcel or assemblage of real estate. In commercial appraisal practice, the concept of highest and best use serves as the foundation of the final value estimate. Select members of our valuation staff thoroughly examine all aspects of the market to reach a conclusion of highest and best use that identifies the highest return to the land under realistic market conditions.
Insurance Appraisals
In today’s changing economy, updated asset business valuations are essential. Up-to-date insurance appraisals protect our clients from overpayment of premiums, under valuation of insured assets and from inequitable settlements in the event of losses.
