Understanding Machinery and Equipment Appraisals
When it comes to buying, selling, financing, or insuring industrial machinery, having an accurate and certified equipment appraisal is essential. Whether you’re upgrading your fabrication line, restructuring your business, or preparing for resale, understanding the true market value of your assets helps you make informed decisions.
At Sanson Northwest Machinery, we recognize that every piece of equipment has a story — from years of production use to unique upgrades and tooling packages. That’s why we offer professional machinery and equipment appraisal services tailored to your specific needs.
Why Appraisals Matter
- Financial Planning & Loans: Banks and financial institutions often require certified appraisals for financing, refinancing, or SBA loan approval.
- Mergers & Acquisitions: Accurate values help ensure fair negotiations during ownership changes or business sales.
- Insurance Purposes: Avoid over- or under-insuring your assets with up-to-date replacement or fair market values.
- Tax & Accounting: Depreciation schedules and end-of-year reporting rely on reliable asset valuations.
- Resale & Trade-In: Knowing the fair market value helps you get the best return when selling or upgrading equipment.
