There are many reasons you may want a piano appraisal, or evaluation, establishing the value of your piano. You may want a piano appraisal when securing a rider on your insurance policy, insuring the instrument for a move or before placing it in storage, or for the purposes of charitable donations.
When selling your piano, a written piano evaluation or appraisal will provide a solid basis for setting your price and negotiating with potential purchasers.
When a full-service piano appraisal is done, the piano will receive a complete inspection, on-site. Once the on-site work is done, you will either be mailed a printed piano evaluation or appraisal or emailed an electronic version within 4 weeks of the date of inspection.
I offer a few levels of evaluation services: an informal verbal assessment, an informal written assessment, and a formal Appraisal. The informal assessments provide information about condition and value of your piano. The formal appraisal provides the same information but is a USPAP accredited Estate, Insurance Replacement, Fair Market Valuation, Charitable Donation, or any other form of appraisal. These appraisals meet all legal IRS requirements for appraisals
Please contact us to schedule a piano evaluation or appraisal for your valued instrument.
