Appraisals
BUXBAUM/CENTURY offers the most comprehensive Machinery and Equipment appraisal service in North America
We stand behind our appraisals with guaranteed results
Our clients - public and private corporations, financial institutions, Receivers, and Trustees in Bankruptcy - rely on our experienced appraisers to accurately value assets for financing, disposal, insurance, merger and acquisition purposes.
We provide three types of appraisals:
Forced Sale Value (FSV): an opinion of the estimated realizations at a properly advertised and conducted public auction and/or liquidation sale, held under forced sale conditions and under present day economic trends.
Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV): an opinion of the estimated realizations at a privately negotiated sale, properly advertised and professionally managed, by a seller obligated to sell over an extended period of time, usually within six to 12 months.
Fair Market Value (FMV): an opinion of the estimated realizations in an exchange between a willing buyer and a willing seller with equity to both, neither being under any compulsion to buy or sell, and both parties fully aware of all relevant facts.
