Brooke Baggenstoss, ISA AM is a USPAP-compliant appraiser
and Accredited Member of the ISA (International Society of Appraisers); this combination of education and experience meet the IRS parameters for a qualified appraiser. I am a generalist appraiser with 18 years experience in the field, and I appraise antiques and household contents including furniture and decorative art, as well as some types of art and jewelry.

Each appraisal requires a measured approach to ascertain the values of individual pieces to large accumulations over lifetimes. As an experienced appraiser, I am able to assist you in determining what type of appraisal is appropriate for your unique situation.
​
COVID-19 notice: at this time I am able to perform appraisals from photos and with social distancing measures.
​
I am able to travel to your location - whether you are in Portland, Vancouver and Ridgefield, Lake Oswego, Beaverton, West Linn, Bend, Eugene, Salem, Sisters, or areas around the Pacific Northwest including Olympia, Seattle, Bellingham, my hometown Spokane and Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
I also provide clients with a wide array of services including assistance with downsizing, hosting of online estate sales, consulting, valuation services, and sale placement to get the highest value for personal property, from household items to fine antiques and art objects.
