The Hidden Value In Your Home (Podcast)

BySusan A. 2022-09-302023-01-10

I recently had the pleasure of joining the good people on the “Clean Break” podcast; have a listen!

Susan Andrews, CPPA, is a Personal Property Appraiser and owner of Dark Horse Appraisals. She joins our hosts Daren Givoque and Tina Murray today to chat about who benefits from the use of an appraiser, when you would want to secure the help of one, and how to navigate the difference between sentimental value and market value. If you are marking a will, in the middle of a separation, or just want to plan ahead – this will be an episode you do not want to miss.

Some years ago I visited Country Side Antiques on the tail end of a long bike ride. As usual I parked my bike by the barn and wandered inside, half-thinking of finding a nice long couch. A small MCM loveseat is the cats’ fur-niture, and sadly too short for me to stretch out on full…

Once upon a time, not too long ago and in a land not too far away, lived a couple. *idyllic music* They had just bought their first ever RV from a private seller, and decided to get an appraisal from a local dealer. *more idyllic music* The local dealer took the Motor Vehicle Appraisal Form…

Antiques Roadshow…featuring yours truly

A few months ago I was contacted by the North Grenville Historical Society, asking if I would be willing to perform on-site valuations for their members. Of course I agreed. It would be a great way to meet the local Historical Society, get a chance to see unusual items, and further spread the word about…

Bully for you!

BySusan A. 2023-06-22

“Hey, you’re British, aren’t you?” I was at McHaffie’s Flea Market and know many of the vendors. One of them was asking that question. I said yes, and he asked if I knew anything about John Bull. It isn’t unusual for vendors to ask my assistance in identifying an item or, in this case, giving…
