Personal Property Appraisals
by Mary Ross
Welcome
With 35 years of experience in the antiques and estate sale business, I am prepared to appraise all items for insurance purposes, IRS non-cash charitable contributions, estate purposes, business liquidation and simple curiosity.
Honesty and professionalism in a network of experts
As a Dallas native, I am fortunate to have longstanding relationships with the local brain trust of personal property specialists. I am a Highland Park High School and University of Texas graduate with a degree in Economics. Currently, I am enjoying the new location of Defined Value, surrounded by the energetic live/work community of the Dallas Design District.
From silver to art to watches to designer furnishings...
Explore the worth of your possessions. As a generalist appraiser, I apply a broad scope of experience and intensive research to provide evidence based appraisals on a wide range of household contents. Daily engagement in auction results, industry periodicals, ongoing coursework, current interior design trends and estate sales enable defining the evolving nature of value.
Education, education, education
As an Accredited Member of the International Society of Appraisers, I am trained and compliant with all USPAP guidelines and the principles and the procedures for the evaluation and valuation of personal property as prescribed by the current version of the International Society of Appraisers Appraisal Report Writing Standard and Code of Ethics.
