All Asset-Based Lenders would require an appraisal for any type of loan, financing, or operating line of credit.

Certainly! A certified appraisal of your machinery & equipment could be very useful and used for:

• Insurance Loss Settlements
• Buy/Sell Agreements
• Estate Planning
• Mergers/Acquisitions
• Tax Purposes
• Divorce Settlements
• Business Liquidation

Yes, the most common types are:

• Fair Market Value (FMV)
• Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV)
• Forced Liquidation Value (FLV)

Most Asset-Based Lenders will require a Forced (FLV) and Orderly (OLV) Liquidation Valuation.

As defined by the Association of Machinery & Equipment Appraisers:

• Orderly Liquidation Value
  A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency which the subject equipment could typically realize 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 twelve months, as of the effective date of the appraisal report. Further the ability of the asset group to draw sufficient prospective buyers to insure competitive offers is considered. All assets are to be sold on a piecemeal basis 'as is' with the purchasers responsible for the removal of assets at their own risk and expense. Any deletions or additions to the assets appraised could change the psychological and/or monetary appeal necessary to gain the price indicated.
• Forced Liquidation Value (Auction)
  A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency which could typically be realized at a properly advertised and conducted public auction sale, held under forced sale conditions and under present day economic trends, as of the effective date of the appraisal report. Conclusions taken into consideration are physical location, difficulty of removal, physical condition, adaptability, specialization, marketability, overall appearance and psychological appeal. Further, the ability of the asset group to draw sufficient prospective buyers to insure competitive offers is considered. All assets are to be sold on a piecemeal basis 'as is' with the purchasers responsible for the removal of assets at their own risk and expense. Any deletions or additions to the total assets appraised could change the psychological and/or monetary appeal necessary to gain the price indicated.

As defined by the Association of Machinery & Equipment Appraisers:

• Fair Market Value
  A professional opinion of the estimated most probable price expressed in terms of currency to be realized for property 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 as of the effective date of the appraisal report.
