PREPARING FOR AN APPRAISAL
So, you need to have your club appraised. It might be for financing, real estate tax assessment, sale, purchase or estate tax purposes. Maybe there’s a dispute or maybe ownership simply needs the information to make decisions. Often appraisals are needed quickly and one of most common factors in delays is getting the appraiser the information needed.
After selecting a qualified and (golf) experienced appraisal firm, a club can expedite the process and contribute to the quality and accuracy of the valuation by being prepared. To start with, have available, in presentable form, the following items:
