Donation Appraisals for New Jersey Donors, Estates, and Advisors
Legacy Donation Appraisers prepares qualified appraisals of assets contributed through charitable planning and structured giving throughout New Jersey. We work with individual donors, estate administrators, business owners, financial advisors, and CPAs to document the fair market value of non-cash gifts, from a single work of art to a complex portfolio of business and personal property.
New Jersey's donors span the pharmaceutical and life-sciences corridor, financial services, and the wealth concentrated across Bergen, Morris, Somerset, and Monmouth counties. Gifts frequently move to institutions such as the Newark Museum of Art, university collections and endowments, community foundations, and donor-advised funds. Whatever the asset and whatever the recipient, our reports are prepared in accordance with USPAP and built to meet IRS requirements for the charitable contribution deduction.
Our appraisers hold credentials with leading organizations such as the ASA, ISA, and AAA. Every report includes the analysis, market evidence, and IRS Form 8283 Part IV completion needed to substantiate the deduction, and most engagements are handled remotely so your appraisal moves on your timeline, wherever you are in the state.
