Why EastWind is your best option
There is no substitute for a certified expert. Appraisals performed by uncertified sources like equipment dealers or auctioneers are often full of inaccuracies by relying on guesswork, book value or even simply their word. Any of these methods can cause potential liability problems and will not hold up to scrutiny from the CRA, IRS, courts, lenders, attorneys, and others.
Get started from anywhere.
Since we are CMEA certified we don’t need to be on site to perform your client’s equipment valuation.
