Present Value LLC worked on an international project involving equipment being purchased from the United States and delivered to two locations in South America: Brazil and Chile. Due to time constraints, the client requested we perform a desktop appraisal.
Once the client provided Present Value the necessary details, photos, and information on the equipment, we conducted all necessary research and developed the appraisal report. The client was very happy with the appraisal because they got the certified report they needed in the timeframe required.
Because the machinery and equipment appraiser does not visit the site of the equipment being appraised, a desktop machinery and equipment appraisal requires the client to provide the appraiser with all the necessary information for each of the items to be appraised, such as photos, make, model, hours, mileage, years, and original cost. The appraiser then performs an appraisal from his or her desk, as the name implies, based on all the information provided by the client.
