Services we offer:
Appraisals
Appraisals refer to the process of assessing the value of a particular item or property. Appraisals are commonly performed on real estate, personal property, and various types of assets. The primary purpose of an appraisal is to provide an unbiased and professional opinion of the value of the item being appraised, which can be used for a variety of purposes, including taxation, insurance, sale, purchase, or legal proceedings.
In the United States, the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) is the recognized set of guidelines that regulate the appraisal industry. These standards define the minimum requirements for conducting an appraisal and ensure that appraisals are performed in an ethical and professional manner.
Valuation
Valuation is a broader term that refers to the process of determining the worth of an asset or a business. While appraisals focus on specific items, valuations can include a range of assets or an entire business. Valuations can be performed for a variety of reasons, such as mergers and acquisitions, financial reporting, tax planning, or bankruptcy proceedings.
What's the Difference Between Appraisals and Valuations?
The primary difference between appraisals and valuations is their scope. Appraisals tend to be more focused and specific, while valuations tend to be broader and more comprehensive. Appraisals are often used for determining the value of a single item or asset, while valuations can include a wide range of assets and liabilities.
Estate Settling
At Blue Box Auction Gallery, we understand that estate settling can be a sensitive and emotional process. That's why we offer our expertise and experience to help make the process as smooth as possible. Estate settlements can be as uninvolved as you want, and we can handle the subject matter appropriately. Our team has a proven track record of successfully managing estate settlements and helping families and individuals navigate this difficult time. We can assist with appraisals, inventory, and auctioning of estate items, leaving the property "broomswept clean" for the next phase. With our knowledge and professionalism, you can trust us to provide you with the guidance and support you need during this challenging time.

Downsizing can be a daunting task, but at Blue Box Auction Gallery, we're here to help make it a little easier. Our team has years of experience helping individuals and families downsize their homes and handle the sale of their belongings. We understand that every situation is unique, and we work closely with our clients to create a personalized plan that meets their specific needs. Our downsizing services include appraisals, inventory, and auctioning of items that our clients no longer need or want. We have a wide network of buyers and collectors, ensuring that we can achieve the best possible prices for our clients' items.
