Property Valuation

A complete range of property valuation and appraisal services for both commercial and public entity clients is provided by the Appraisal Services Group of Alliant Insurance Services.

In addition to its own vast knowledge base, the Appraisal Services team is able to leverage the resources of the group’s proprietary appraisal and cost databases to meet the specialized appraisal needs of a wide range of companies and public agencies across the U.S.

This is achieved by bringing together experienced local consultants in major markets nationwide who work under our close direction. This approach ensures that each consultant understands local valuation issues unique to the client’s specific market and enables us to provide the appropriately skilled staff when and where they are needed.

Hospitals

Accurate, fully documented appraisals are provided for:

Public Sector Services

Few competitors possess the depth and diversity of public sector experience and knowledge as that offered by Alliant’s Appraisal Services Group.

Unlike the private sector, where appraisals of real estate are largely based on market data involving sale and lease transactions, public sector appraisals pose a unique set of challenges because fixed assets and infrastructure tend to be unique and rarely sell in the marketplace. Therefore, public sector appraisals require expert knowledge of a particular type of public entity and its unique assets in order to establish accurate, fully documented replacement values for highly specialized property, including:

Water distribution systems
Sewage treatment facilities
Power generation plants
Medical treatment facilities
School gymnasiums
Firefighting equipment
Communication towers
Roadways
Bridges
Other specialized assets

Government-Mandated Compliance

Our Appraisal Services team works hand in hand with clients to deliver accurate appraisals that ensure compliance with government-mandated reporting requirements, including:

Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP)
Governmental Accounting Auditing and Financial Reporting (GAAFR)
Various state capital asset accounting directives

Report Formats

Our reports can be customized to a client’s particular requirements, ranging from a spreadsheet that summarizes key data to standalone appraisal reports for each asset. Clients can be confident that our appraisal reports will be consistent and supported by reliable market data.

Appraisal Peer Review

To ensure that all appraisals performed by the Appraisal Services Group meet the highest standards of the profession, we submit every appraisal for peer review by a qualified third-party appraisal firm. This procedure validates our findings and conclusions while guaranteeing the accuracy of the contents of the appraisal report.
