Restricted Appraisal Report
This appraisal report is intended for the use of the client and no one else. The appraiser's opinions and conclusions set forth in this report cannot be understood properly by anyone other than the client without knowledge of additional information contained in the appraiser's confidential workfile.
Identity of Client and Other Intended Users
This report is intended for use only by the client. With the exception of the client, this appraisal report is not intended to be used by or influence any particular person(s) or class(es) of persons which might take some action in reliance upon it. I am not aware that the client intends to transmit any information contained in this report to any other person(s) or group(s). Regardless of who receives a copy of this report, my liability is limited to the client to the exclusion of all others. Parties other than the client who take some action in reliance upon this report do so at their own risk. Due to the requirement for anonymity, I am unaware of the identity of the client, but assume the client to be a private party.
Ownership Interest Being Appraised
The appraised values are based upon an assumed 100% client interest in the property undiminished by any liens, fractional interests or any other form of encumbrance. I assume that the client is the sole owner of the property listed in this report; however, mere possession of this appraisal report is not an indication or certificate of title or ownership. Ownership and ownership interest have been represented to me by the client, and no inquiry or investigation has been made nor is any opinion to be given as to the accuracy of such representation.
Intended Use and Value Type and Definition
By agreement between the appraisal management company and the client, the scope of work for this appraisal assignment has been limited to providing an estimate of fair market value and replacement value (comparable) for the intended private uses of personal knowledge, contemplated sale or purchase, or personal planning. This appraisal is invalid if used for any other purpose. Opinions of value are in terms of cash.
The definition of Fair Market Value is set forth in Treasury Regulation Sec. 1.170A-1(c)(2) which states that the Fair Market Value is "The price at which the property would change hands between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither being under any compulsion to buy or to sell and both having reasonable knowledge of relevant facts." For purposes of this assignment, fair market value is based on past consummated sales within the auction market, either online or the traditional onsite.
As defined by "Appraising Personal Property: Principles & Methodology" (Maloney, Appraisers Press, 2013) replacement value (comparable) is the worth of an item based on the amount of money necessary to obtain a comparable substitute property that would provide the same enjoyment, usefulness and other rights of ownership as did the subject property. Replacement value (comparable) is based on the substitute property's replacement cost (comparable) which is defined as the amount of money necessary to replace the item being appraised with a comparable item of property of like kind, age, quality, and utility having similar wear and tear, obsolescence, and value-relevant characteristics as the item being appraised. Replacement cost (comparable) is useful, for instance, when estimating replacement value (comparable) for acquiring insurance coverage of items not capable of being replaced with a brand new property such as antiques, collectibles, or works of art by a deceased artist.

Scope of Work
The scope of work for this assignment included an examination of the digital images and descriptive information provided to me by the client. Identification research was later conducted as necessary making use of resources such as internet web sites and/or relevant books authored by subject property experts. Value research was conducted as necessary making use of relevant market research such as price guides, auction sales results, and relevant Internet market data sources. My own past experiences, knowledge and personal observations may have alone formed the basis for my opinion of value.
Information Analyzed, Approach to Value
In this assignment, the sales comparison approach to value was employed to determine fair market value as well as replacement value (comparable.) In the sales comparison approach, the most appropriate market is researched to locate comparable items which have sold in the past. Adjustments in value are made to reflect differences (if any) in value relevant characteristics between the comparable properties and the subject properties.
Neither the cost approach to value nor the income approach to value were employed:
Listings/Offers/Prior Sales
There are no known current agreements of sale, validated offers or third-party offers to sell, options, or listings of the subject property as of the effective date of the appraisal. There are no known prior sales of the subject property that have occurred within a reasonable time preceding the effective date of this appraisal.
