When you contract for a machinery appraisal with a member of the Association of Machinery and Equipment Appraisers (AMEA), you know you are dealing with an accredited or certified appraiser whose profession is machinery and equipment. AMEA members have earned the right to display the AMEA seal and formulate reliable values of machinery on a daily basis.

AMEA Appraisers are required to pass examinations and participate in on-going education and training, a qualification many other companies cannot match.

AMEA appraisers are involved in the buying and selling of used machinery. This professional activity in the machinery and equipment marketplace gives AMEA appraisers first hand understanding of the dynamic economic swings in the industry which influence machinery values.

This marketplace insight, combined with each AMEA appraiser's membership in Machinery Dealers National Association (MDNA) is your assurance of both professional and ethical service as both MDNA and AMEA Codes of Ethics will be upheld.

Furthermore, AMEA accredited and certified appraisers fully understand the implications of an appraisal in the marketplace and can provide professional evaluations of entire plants, production lines or single machines. They can further advise as to which method of evaluation will best fit your business needs: fair market value, new replace cost value, orderly liquidation value or auction value.

If you are seeking a qualified opinion as to value when lending, buying, selling or insuring machinery and equipment, be sure you are getting the most professional service available. Contact an AMEA machinery and equipment appraiser.
