As changes in life occur, Lyn Huck Estate & Appraisal Services provides experience in liquidating the contents of a household or determining values of personal property.

Estate Liquidation

A specialist for nearly two decades in conducting private and public sales for complete or partial estates.
Offering in-home or off-site solutions.

The first step is a complimentary on-site consultation where the home and contents are reviewed.

If conducting a sale is the right solution, Lyn Huck will discuss the logistics of preparing and executing a successful sale.

If a sale is not the right solution, Lyn Huck will provide you with ideas or options that are better suited for your situation.

Appraisals

There are several occasions where you may need a written appraisal or appraisal services, such as:

• Insuring Art, Antiques, Collections and Personal Property
• Equitable Distribution
• Estate/Financial Planning
• Charitable Donation

The process is a straightforward three-step process:

• Initially review the project verbally or via email 
• Physically examine, measure and photograph items
• Research and document

Appraisal reports are written in accordance with ISA and USPAP 2020/2021 professional standards.

For those who simply need information and not a formal report, a Verbal Approximation of Value services are available. This service is typically for those who wish for a little more information/background on items (you have grandma's buffet, what is it and what is the value?).

Appraisals are charged at an hourly rate with a minimum for both written and verbal appraisals. 
Rates vary based on the services provided.

Special Note:  You do not need an appraisal conducted for selling your contents on your own.  If you are having an estate sale, the liquidator can provide you with a ballpark of Fair Market Value based on their experience in selling similar items.
