Why should you hire Piano Finders to perform this service?
These are some of the
reasons why Piano Finders can offer you a superior service:
-
Piano Finders has a proven comprehensive
and accurate method that produces consistent results.
-
Piano Finders has the expertise and
experience to advise you about your options so you can make a good decision. Piano Finders has records of
thousands of inspections and
appraisals that have been done over the past 16 years as well as reports from across the
country regarding current piano market conditions. In determining values, we
take into consideration the condition of the piano, the local market conditions, the
national market conditions, what a dealer will buy and sell a piano for, what private
parties can get for their pianos through the newspaper, what new pianos wholesale for,
etc. With a ballpark appraisal, we have not inspected the piano
ourselves, so our report to you is based upon the accuracy of what you
tell us and upon the assumptions we have made about the piano's
condition based upon its age, determined by the serial number.
