Desktop Appraisal

A desktop appraisal, also known as a limited scope appraisal, is a valuation based on the machinery’s description, condition and photographs provided by you.

These are especially useful when the equipment is in a remote location, not available for a physical inspection, or the appraisal is required in a shorter timeframe.

Verus Valuations® also has its own inspection app. You can get a desktop appraisal with the benefits and peace of mind of a physical inspection.
