Research is the primary component
of all our valuations. For a typical engagement, we
spend an average of 3 days to 1 when comparing research
to the actual site inspection. As a company, we spend
hundreds of man hours a year to add to our database of
comparables and other research which directly impacts
our valuation process. We have a comprehensive inhouse
tool to help our appraisers’ value assets called the
Asset Valuation Engine (ASE). This tool is constantly
maintained and inputted with comparables sales of assets
from auctions and brokers throughout North America.
Here is a list of tools and sources
we utilize to help derive our conclusions:
Asset Valuation Engine
Auctions
Internet Sales
Broker Data
Trade Journals
Price Lists
Manufacturers
Used Dealers
