Appraisal Services
Since 1982, Rick Pence
has been preparing antique, fine art and household goods appraisals for both
estate and insurance purposes. His expert evaluations are based on the
results of thousands of Pence estate sales and auctions conducted over the
past 35 years, as well as thorough research of the results of other auction
houses around the country. It is a priority to stay attuned to the latest
developments in the ever-changing market. Rick Pence has been a thirty-year
member of the International Society of Appraisers and participates in
the continuing educational program of that organization. His valuations,
prepared for corporations, private collectors, fiduciaries and government
entities, are greatly respected among collectors and legal authorities.
Estate appraisals are
used for tax and property division purposes. The values assigned reflect a
fair market value, defined as the price, upon which a willing buyer and a
willing seller would agree. Appraisals Insurance are used for insuring
tangible personal property. The values reflect the cost of replacing the
item. Both types of appraisals are written to the current version of USPAP
and the estate appraisals are formatted to IRS standards.
The appraisal services
are convenient. It can be arranged to meet at the residence or other site to
make the complete appraisal. Most appraisals can be completed within a few
hours and the report returned in only a few days. Whatever your appraisal
needs, RICK PENCE APPRAISALS will be happy to accommodate that need
in a timely and professional manner.

Pence Estate Sales

been serving the needs of fiduciaries for years in the disposition of large
and small estates. A full range of estate services is offered including
estate sales and auctions. The ability to offer both types of sales is
beneficial in determining the most conducive method of liquidating the
personal property. The years of experience assist attorneys, accountants,
and trust officers in obtaining the true market value for fine arts,
antiques and complete households. The full service provided can ease the
complex task of estate liquidations for both heirs and executors.
Estate Purchasing
An alternative to
consignment of an estate is the outright purchase of the estate. In such
cases, the items will be evaluated and a price mutually agreed upon between
the parties.
