Instruction manual

1

Decide which particular valuation firm you want to open. It can be either a broad-based company with specialists in evaluating different types of property, or a highly specialized company. It all depends on what will be more necessary and profitable in your city.

2

Gather a team of professionals. For the appraisal firm, the staff is of particular importance, since there are few good appraisers, and only certain universities graduate them. In addition, if you open a broad-based appraisal firm, then you will need specialists in the valuation of very different types of property, which will be difficult to find. Be prepared for the fact that especially rare specialists will have to be lured from existing firms.

3

Rent an office in the city center where you could receive clients. It should be convenient to drive to the office, take care of parking spaces. Office furniture can be rented to save money.

4

Register your company. It is most advantageous to create a limited liability company - LLC. To do this, you can hire a registration law firm whose services are currently inexpensive (7-15 thousand rubles). You can register an LLC and yourself, if you develop the constituent documents, correctly fill out the registration form, pay the state fee (4 thousand rubles) and submit a package of documents to the tax office.

5

The payback of your business depends on its promotion. Try to find customers before opening an appraisal firm. As a rule, if you or the company’s employees were involved in valuation activities earlier, this is not so difficult, as old connections remain. Customers can also be found through professional communities of those who need the services of appraisers (realtors, collectors, etc.). It is important for private clients that you have a website, as they most often use this particular method of searching for appraisers.
