Appraisal
To accurately determine the value of your piano, a qualified appraiser must perform a physical detailed, comprehensive inspection of the instrument's total condition By "total condition" we mean the instrument as a whole. There are several factors to be considered when accurately appraising a piano:
Make & Model
Manufacture Date
Structure
Cabinet
Action
Soundboard & Bridges
Harp
Strings
Maintenance History (Has it been properly maintained or stored in the shed?)
Our qualified professionals have the experience and training to appraise your instrument for insurance valuation, replacement value, estate sale, purchase, damage claims and donations. Upon completion of the inspection, our appraiser will issue a written Appraisal Report, which includes as much history about the instrument that is factually available, including any historical significance, if any.
As you can see, there's more to it than just knowing what the piano looks like or how old it is. Just because it is "old" or has a readily recognized name, doesn't determine the value of the instrument. Have your instrument properly appraised by the professionals who know the piano business from the inside out.
