Webinar Course Description

Certain problems and considerations may arise when valuing a business that has significant real estate and/or machinery & equipment. This presentation will focus on the major issues that often arise and provide insight on how to deal with them. The real estate-related concept of highest and best use is not only applicable to real property. In some cases, it must also be considered in a business valuation engagement. In many real estate and machinery & equipment-centric businesses it is important to have the real estate and/or the machinery & equipment appraised. When such an appraisal is required, there are a number of issues that must be addressed, such as applying the appropriate standard of value and ensuring that the real estate appraiser and the machinery and equipment appraiser are not appraising some of the same assets. The business appraiser needs to ask the correct questions of both the real estate appraiser and the machinery & equipment appraiser in order to understand the data needed to properly complete the business valuation.

Course Audience

Business appraisers that work with fixed assets, that need to understand when to bring in a real estate appraiser and/or machinery & equipment appraiser  - and how to best work together to get the correct result
