Do you need an appraisal of a oil painting, sculpture, drawing, limited edition print or other work of art? Do you
need to document and value a single work or an entire fine art collection?
In order to realize the full, honest and accurate value of your work of art, always rely on a trained and tested
professional appraiser who is an expert in researching and valuing fine art.
Art appraisal services and the type of documents that they generate can vary greatly in their monetary accuracy,
quality of research, formal content, extent of documentation and price.
PLEASE NOTE: At Art Services 2000 Ltd. fine art is our "only" business. Our appraisal reports are recognized
as legal documents and when called upon to do so we are fully prepared to testify as expert witnesses as required
by courts of law.
We serve private clients, collectors, art organizations, institutions and government agencies throughout the State
of Florida, the United States and worldwide.
THE APPRAISER'S CREDENTIALS:
When searching for a qualified art appraiser look for those individuals who meet the Uniform Standards of
Professional Appraisal Practice ( USPAP ) and are current fully accredited members in good standing of one of
the three "recognized" professional appraisal organizations:
The International Society of Appraisers ( ISA )
The American Society of Appraisers ( ASA )
The Appraisers Association of America ( AAA )
All of their Accredited Members are trained and tested and must adhere to their organization's professional Code
of Ethics. Accredited Members must test and re-qualify on a regular basis and pursue ongoing professional
continuing education in their specialty field.
Make sure to contact the above organizations to see that the appraiser's membership is current and in good
standing.
THREE TYPES OF APPRAISALS ARE:
INSURANCE REPLACEMENT VALUE APPRAISALS in case of loss or damage.
FAIR MARKET VALUE APPRAISALS for estate settlements, trust planning, equitable distribution of assets,
divorce and to meet IRS guidelines for tax deductible ( IRS form 8283 ) charitable donations.
MARKET VALUE APPRAISALS for liquidation, collateral evaluation and the sale of works of art.
We can meet your specific legal requirements and can provide Expert Witness testimony and depositions for all
of our appraisal report documents.
Our Director, Mark Alexander, ISA, AM, is a fully Accredited Member of The International Society of
Appraisers. ( ISA Membership # 10995262 )
THE INTERNATIONAL SOCIETY OF APPRAISERS
The ISA specializes in the appraisal of Personal Property and is recognized by both The Appraisal Foundation
and The North American Conference of Appraisal Organizations.
THE DEFINITION OF AN APPRAISAL:
THE NORTH AMERICAN CONFERENCE OF APPRAISAL ORGANIZATIONS defines an appraisal as:
"A written statement, independently and impartially prepared by a qualified appraiser, setting forth an
opinion of defined value of an adequately described property, as of a specific date, supported by the
presentation and analysis of relevant market information."
All of our fine art appraisal report documents are written in accordance to The Uniform Standards of Professional
Appraisal Practice (USPAP), guidelines established by The Appraisal Foundation Washington, D.C. and The
Report Writing Standard of The International Society of Appraisers and The International Society of Appraisers
Code of Ethics.
PLEASE NOTE: Appraisal fees are not based on commissions or percentages of items valued, the intended
use of the appraisal or the financial outcome from its use.
Beware of any appraisal based on percentages of the item valued.
Once again, make sure to closely examine the professional credentials and fine art degrees and academic training
of any appraiser before retaining their services.
Beware of art appraisers who hold no art or art history degrees or that claim Ph.D.degrees from familiar
sounding but "dubious or obscure universities and colleges", that are simply "diploma mills".
