What clients say we are known for
Across 80+ published AppraiseItNow reviews the picture is consistent: every one is from a client who paid us for an appraisal, and the three things they raise most often are that they would hire us again, how quickly we answer, and how much research is visible in the report.
Responsive, professional, first class deliverables -- especially considering that that the appraised assets are extremely complex financial assets with little by way of comps. The deliverable satisfied my accountants and advisers as being more than adequate to support the valuation needed to complete a conversion to a Roth IRA
Business Valuation Appraisal for IRA Conversion
Joe and Aron were extremely impressive - the entire process went very smoothly. They were always quick to respond to any questions I had and could not have been more helpful. They were aware of some tight time restrictions I had and made sure I received my reports in a timely fashion. I highly recommend them to anyone needing a valuation.

Popular uses of our appraisal reports include:
Yes. Guidance from the IRS, AICPA, ASA, NACVA, and USPAP uniformly requires that the income, market, and asset-based approaches at least be considered, with professional judgment selecting which to apply. Failing to document why an approach was rejected is one of the most common deficiencies flagged when New Hampshire valuations are reviewed.
Complete workpapers. IRS Business Valuation Guidelines in Internal Revenue Manual 4.48.4 direct appraisers to define the valuation issue, analyze the company's history, financial condition, earning capacity, and comparable transactions, and record all of it in workpapers supporting the conclusion. We build New Hampshire estate and gift valuations to that documentation standard.
No. New Hampshire imposes no state estate or inheritance tax, so only the federal estate tax can apply to large estates. Business interests still need fair market value support for federal filings and probate administration, but there is no separate state-level threshold to manage.
As marital property under RSA 458:16-a, which covers all tangible and intangible property belonging to either spouse and presumes an equal division that the court can adjust for contributions, economic circumstances, and tax consequences. A supportable valuation of the company is what turns that presumption into a workable number.
No. The state’s Interest and Dividends Tax is repealed for taxable periods beginning after December 31, 2024, removing the last state-level tax on dividend income from closely held shares. The repeal changes after-tax returns for New Hampshire owners, an input worth revisiting in valuations that carried the old tax assumptions.
