"The Ever Changing Market on Personal Property"

Presented by:

Deric Torres, Senior Vice President

Clars Auction Gallery

_______________

Presentation Summary:

The presenter will provide a history of trends in the market for personal property, and how trends change sometimes for the worse. Current trends will also be discussed. Personal property wealth being transferred from one generation to the next, and how does the personal property wealth come in to play. What are the different avenues of liquidation and how do they compare to one another?

Two main appraisal assignments are Replacement Valuation and Fair Market Valuations. How does a professional convey to the client of the beneficiaries the differences of each, and why there are such drastic market values on each?

The presenter will summarize the points and also explain why it is important to trust the professional or Auction Gallery you use for the sale of the items. How to ask the important questions, and what those questions are.
