The Appraisal FoundationAuthorized by Congress as the source of appraisal standardsAppraiseItNow provides professional bankruptcy filing appraisals for debtors, trustees, and creditors throughout Oklahoma, covering asset classes commonly at issue in Chapter 7, Chapter 12, and Chapter 13 proceedings. Oklahoma's three federal bankruptcy districts, the Northern, Eastern, and Western Districts, each have local rules requiring detailed valuation bases for motions under 11 U.S.C. § 506, making defensible appraisals essential. Chapter 12 filings are especially common in Oklahoma given the state's strong agricultural economy, where farm equipment, livestock operations, and business interests frequently require formal valuation for plan confirmation.
AppraiseItNow offers both remote and onsite appraisal options, giving clients flexibility whether assets are located in Oklahoma City, Tulsa, or rural farming communities across the state. Our appraisal services in Oklahoma are designed to meet court deadlines and trustee timelines without sacrificing accuracy or compliance.
AppraiseItNow covers the major asset classes that appear in Oklahoma bankruptcy proceedings, including:
AppraiseItNow works with individual debtors, bankruptcy attorneys, Chapter 7 and Chapter 12 trustees, and secured creditors across Oklahoma who need court-ready valuations for asset schedules, exemption disputes, and plan confirmation hearings.
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.
Affordable and reliable, with fast service and always responsive to my messages and questions. They delivered my appraisal on time without a glitch. 100% Recommended! I wouldn’t use anyone else for my business. Thank you, Joe — you’re great!
Machinery & Equipment Appraisal for Bankruptcy Filing
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
I was in dire need of an appraisal for my father's mobile home, which he needed for Medicaid approval. I couldn’t find anyone to do it for a long time, but then I found this company online and decided to give them a try. I’m so glad I did. They were wonderful to work with. I sent the pictures, and within just a few days I received the appraisal. They are absolutely worth the money.
Mobile Home Appraisal
I recently requested a retroactive appraisal for fine art from AppraiseItNow. I received excellent service from intake to delivery. The appraisal was delivered on time and the content of the appraisal absolutely met my expectations!
Artwork Appraisal
From the start they were very responsive, price competitive, and had a quick turn around time. Thank you so much to Joe who was very sweet in responding to my emails; I am looking forward to utilizing AppraiseItNow for many years to come.
Very thorough and professional — great communication and outstanding service. Highly impressed with their work!
Oklahoma's own statute, 31 O.S. § 1, for anyone who has lived in the state for the entire 730-day period before filing. That two-year residency rule locks long-time Oklahomans into the state scheme, so the Oklahoma dollar caps, not the federal ones, decide what an appraised asset means for the case.
Up to $7,500 per filer, or $15,000 for joint debtors, in one motor vehicle. Older materials still cite a $3,000 figure from prior versions of the statute, which is why relying on outdated summaries when scheduling a vehicle can misstate what is actually exempt.
No. All household and kitchen furniture held primarily for personal, family, or household use is exempt without a stated dollar cap. Itemized caps apply instead to specific categories: wearing apparel to $4,000, wedding and anniversary rings to $3,000, guns to $2,000, and tools of the trade to $10,000.
In Chapter 12 cases, a motion to value under section 506 must be filed within 20 days after the section 341 meeting concludes, per General Order 24-05. The motion must describe the property, state the asserted value and its basis, and responses are due within 14 days. Miss the deadline and the value in the debtor's schedules controls for plan confirmation.
