Why use an independent certified appraiser?
Independent certified appraisers provide information regarding value in a specialized area. Examples may range from fine art to business assets to intellectual property. Typically, these appraisers are members of a professional society with a code of ethics. Each of these societies has requirements for experience and education that their members must meet. To continue their membership and good standing they must meet recertification requirements. The oldest multi-disciplinary society of appraisers is The American Society of Appraisers.
