When You Should Have Your Rug Appraised?

You may be wondering if this is the right time. A rug appraisal is not restricted to just rare antiques. It is a good course of action whenever you need to protect, insure, sell, or determine the value of your rug in a better way.

Here are the common scenarios in which you should have your rug appraised by professionals:

Insurance Options

If the rug in question is worth a lot of money, an appraisal becomes mandatory for either renters' or homeowners' insurance. This guarantees that you will be compensated sufficiently in case of theft, accidental damage, flood, or fire.

If You're About to Sell or Consign

Would you like to privately sell the rug, or perhaps have it sold in a store? Getting your rug appraised gives you a fair market value that you can use in setting the price and in negotiations.

An Estate or Inheritance Matter

Many rugs become family heirlooms. An appraisal establishes a value for asset division, estate settlement, or donation purposes.

When You Inherit One

If you have been gifted or inherited a rug, getting it appraised will probably tell you what it is, how much it is worth, and how to care for it in the future.
