About Howard Graphic Appraisals

Specialist Appraisals for Financial Planning and Asset Protection

No industry remains static. The advent of new technology in the pre-press, printing and finishing sectors has had a major effect on values. Recessions can also turn what was once a conservatively valued piece of machinery into a grossly overvalued commodity.

To have a firm understanding of what your assets are worth, an up-to-date appraisal is essential. Many of our clients have their appraisals revised every few years. Knowing ahead of time what your equipment is worth allows management to make important financial decsions.

Of course, there are other reasons why appraisals are important. Insurance is a major part of any company's portfolio. The correct assessment of your equipment is vital. Your insurance coverage must accurately allow for replacement of equal or better value.

It is simply too risky to under insure. Fires and wilful and accidental damage all bring the appraisal to the forefront of the matter. It is the operable instrument which is referred to time ad time again by both the insured and the insurer.

A Howard Graphic appraisal can in many ways assist you in planning for the future. Selling, merging, or refinancing your operations will reduce unprofitable decisions with credible valuations. Today's managers need an accurate up-to-date appraisal as part of their information package. Our client list boasts:
