Esc Appraisals

Everyone understands the importance of having and managing their financial portfolio. But few realize the equal importance of knowing the value of their personal property or POSSESSION PORTFOLIO. You (or your clients) spent a lifetime collecting fine art, exquisite antiques and other prized assets such as silver, china, crystal, even wine. What is it all worth? More importantly, were these precious assets to be lost in a natural disaster, fire or stolen, would you be able to recover the retail replacement value for them? Also, shouldn't your estate plan ensure equitable division of assets for heirs? What about the painful challenge of asset division in the event of a divorce? What should you do to protect the valuable personal asset portfolio you spent a lifetime spent building?ESC Appraisals KNOWS.
