Business owners, lenders, bankers, brokers and other decision makers depend upon AIS for accurate, timely machinery and equipment appraisals for mergers, acquisitions, partnership buyouts, business dissolutions, auctions, sales of surplus capacity, inventory liquidation, litigation, and to establish asset-based lines of credit or operating capital.

Whatever your machinery  and equipment appraisal needs, an AIS certified appraisal can help. 

Do you need operating capital or an asset-based line of credit?  An AIS certified appraisal on your equipment can get you the money you need.  

Are you trying to negotiate a fair settlement with your insurance company due to damage or loss? An AIS certified appraisal will help you get the highest possible settlement.

Do you want to take a tax deduction on equipment you've donated?  An AIS certified appraisal will document the full value of the equipment.

Do you have a loss due to a natural disaster such as hurricanes, tornados, floods or wind, sometimes called "Act of God"? An AIS certified appraisal of your equipment will document the value before the loss occurred. An AIS certified appraisal will help you settle with your insurance company for the maximum amount. In 99% of cases, equipment is worth more than the "depreciated value" - in some cases, much more.  An AIS certified appraisal will also help you document losses for tax filing purposes.

Do you need an appraisal of equipment for an equipment leasing dispute? An AIS certified appraisal has helped hundreds of people settle disputes with leasing companies.

Do you want to find out what equipment is worth before you buy it? An AIS certified appraisal can save you thousands of dollars. AND an AIS certified appraisal can help you get the financing of start-up capital you need to start or grow your business.

Our appraisers are up-to-date with ever fluctuating prices, using on-line services, auction results, and our extensive in-house reference library.  AND we always deliver on time.

As you might expect from a "client first" company, AIS appraisal service continues "after delivery". We are available before, during and after the report is delivered to answer questions, provide feedback or just be there for our clients. And of course, AIS prepares all machinery and equipment appraisals in accordance with 2004 Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and adheres to the Code of Ethics of The American Society of Appraisers which is the oldest multidisciplinary professional society in the U.S.
