Certified Business Inventory & Equipment Appraisals
When you need a clear, defensible, and accurate valuation of your business assets, equipment, and inventory, Atlantic Asset Management Group delivers. Our professional appraisal services give business owners, attorneys, lenders, and investors the confidence they need to make informed decisions. Whether you are preparing for a sale, securing financing, resolving a legal matter, or planning for tax purposes, our certified business inventory and equipment appraisals provide precise, credible values.
Why Accurate Business Inventory and Equipment Appraisals Matter
An equipment and inventory appraisal isn’t just a number—it directly impacts negotiations, legal outcomes, insurance, financing, and strategy.
- Support business sales or acquisitions
- Document insurance coverage or claims
- Assist with tax reporting and compliance
- Strengthen financing applications
- Resolve partnership disputes or litigation
- Facilitate estate planning or bankruptcy proceedings
Without a professional, unbiased appraisal, you risk undervaluing your assets—or inflating their worth—which can lead to poor decision-making and financial loss.
Our Comprehensive Appraisal Process
1. On-Site Inspection by a Qualified Appraiser
We send an experienced on-site inspector to personally examine your business equipment and inventory. This ensures that our valuation reflects the true condition, specifications, and functionality of your assets—not just generic market estimates.
2. Detailed Analysis of Assets
Our team evaluates each asset individually, considering factors such as age, usage, condition, and market demand. We assess:
- Machinery and equipment performance
- Business inventory levels and turnover
- Specialized or custom-built assets
- Compliance with safety and industry standards
3. Photographic Documentation
We include high-resolution photographs of your assets to create a visual record for buyers, lenders, or legal teams. These images strengthen the credibility of your appraisal and support future negotiations.
4. Factors Affecting Value
Every asset is unique. Our reports detail identifying marks, manufacturer specifications, maintenance history, and current condition, all of which can significantly impact value.
5. Legal Correspondence and Negotiation Support
If your appraisal is part of a legal proceeding or dispute, we can provide supporting documentation, expert witness testimony, and negotiation assistance to help you achieve a fair resolution.
6. Additional Research as Needed
When market data is limited—such as for rare or highly specialized equipment—we perform in-depth research to ensure your valuation is both accurate and defendable.
