What is a Veterinary Equipment Appraisal?
Strategic decisions depend on accurate and precise information. A veterinary equipment appraisal can give you this information. Our team can determine the veterinary equipment’s fair value through careful research and calculation. This not only impacts your decisions, but also that of third parties. Depending on your situation, this could be the IRS, SBA, or an insurance company.
Inaccurate equipment appraisals can lead to costly mistakes. On one hand, undervaluation of equipment can mean missed opportunities.

What are the Reasons for Obtaining a Veterinary Equipment Appraisal?
Our clients seek veterinary equipment appraisals for a variety of reasons. Their reasons often depend on their business role and responsibilities. Below are some of the top reasons for obtaining a veterinary equipment appraisal.
-
Buying or Selling Veterinary Equipment
To begin with, equipment appraisals promote fair and successful transactions of veterinary equipment. Those buying equipment often struggle to determine a reasonable purchase price. No one wants to pay more than the equipment’s worth. Those selling veterinary equipment often struggle to determine a competitive selling price. If you set it too high, you lose potential buyers. Too low, and you leave money on the table. A veterinary equipment appraisal can help both the buyer and seller. They can engage in transparent transactions by understanding the fair value of equipment.
-
Veterinary Equipment Appraisals for Securing A Loan
Next, equipment appraisals can help you obtain a loan. A slow loan approval process or outright rejection can stifle the growth of your business. This is yet another reason for obtaining a veterinary equipment appraisal. Lenders need a precise equipment valuation to determine the loan terms and amount. For a quick and efficient loan approval, partner with Peak Business Valuation. We appraise veterinary equipment and connect clients to SBA lenders.

Insurance Coverage
Natural disasters, thefts, and accidents are part of doing business. No matter how much security and training you invest in, some things are out of your control. Since these devastating events can be costly, insurance can be a lifesaver. However, inaccurate insurance coverage can mean high premiums or underinsured equipment. Avoid falling into these traps by obtaining a veterinary equipment appraisal. A precise valuation ensures your equipment and wallet are well-protected from unexpected losses.
-
Estate Planning, Divorce, and Partnership Dissolutions
Veterinary equipment appraisals also are useful in the distribution of business assets. Our clients request this service for partnership dissolutions, divorce proceedings, and estate planning. These significant transitions need an independent and third-party assessment of the equipment’s fair value. Equipment appraisals allocate asset value evenly among the involved parties. This official equipment valuation and allocation helps to foster understanding and objectivity.
-
