Donation

The IRS requires proof of value for any substantial gift to a charity, eligible museum, etc. An appraisal, along with the appropriate IRS forms signed by an appraiser, can be used to provide this proof of value.

A standard vehicle appraisal includes an assessment of condition and a determination of the fair market value of the vehicle. It provides the documentation required to justify the value claimed for tax deductible donation of a vehicle.

Standard Vehicle Appraisal

$250 plus travel* and tolls

A standard vehicle appraisal provides a value of the vehicle at the current time. We inspect and photograph the condition of the vehicle and collect any information from the owner that could affect its value. We then rate the vehicle on a universal scale of condition.

We research websites, auctions, “For Sale”, publications like “Old Cars”, “NADA” etc., and consult with experts to establish the fair market value range of the vehicle. With all this information, we assess the value of the vehicle and prepare a formal appraisal report.

*Travel time

Travel is $75/hour by car, round trip. Travel time is $50/hour for any transportation other than driving. Parking, tolls, etc. are additional. Motels, meals, and other related overnight expenses are billed at actual cost.
