Shrewd Comments on 409A Valuations from Pro Appraiser



Focus on Evidence and More Bashing of Foreign Valuation Companies - Here

"Several clients ask us questions about what types of information is collected and why. You see, 409A valuations have got more to do with substantiation and evidence and less to do with valuation techniques and number crunching. One of the things we have noticed, especially, in valuation work from overseas is use of data sources, enumeration and explanation of data, and calculation methods that dont quite fit in with US Tax Court lingo or evidentiary standards. We collect information that is more appropriate to pass the evidentiary standards set out in usual IRS court cases and US GAAP standards. This also makes the audit work a breeze as most information they are looking for is set in in the manual"

Well said! I'm just getting into learning how the appraisal game works now, and learned a ton from your posts. From appraising a website like www.towtrucknewmarket.com to appraising a tow truck for sale, the knowledge you share is all very good to know, so cheers!
