What does an appraisal cost ?
I work on an hourly fee structure. The fee is $100 per hour if you come to my office or $125 per hour if I go to your office or home.
The first thing I do is review your items and tell you how long the assignment will take and how much the total assignment fee will be. That way there is no guess work. That will be put in writing and signed by both of us before the assignment begins.
(FYI: YOU should NEVER agree to an appraisal fee based on the item's resulting value, a percentage of resulting value, or a high stated quote just because the item is expensive. Get out of there fast. Find someone with an hourly rate or a per item rate so that you know what your financial investment is up front.)
