Gunther’s problems were immediate and myriad. He didn’t know the first thing about toy construction. He couldn’t speak elvish, so he and his helpers had no way to communicate. Being a Florida native, he hated the cold. And he didn’t like children.

So he offered to sell the whole operation to his younger brother. But what would his asking price be? There was the house to consider, the workshop, the toy-making equipment, the workbenches, the tools, the toys themselves – how could he estimate a value for all of it?

He called on the services of the good girls and boys at Present Value. They were able to do an appraisal on the house (not easy when the nearest comparable property is hundreds of miles away), appraise the equipment, and provide a business valuation so that both Clauses were satisfied with the final sale price.

Gunther returned to the Florida panhandle, where he happily lives out his days. Santa stayed at the North Pole and became the legend he is today. And Present Value wishes you and your family the happiest of holidays!
