LIABILITY

Liability & Professional Obligations (Short) Certified Expert Appraisers (CEAC) provides impartial valuations to recognized standards. Reports are based on client-supplied documents, visual inspection, and market data available on the effective date; items are not disassembled or mechanically tested. Sources and uncertainties are disclosed where applicable. Conclusions reflect professional judgment and are not a guarantee of sale price. Intended use and users are limited to the client and named parties. CEAC is not responsible for hidden defects, withheld/misleading information, or market changes after the report date.

LIMITATION

Certified Expert Appraisers (CEAC) performs each valuation through a structured, transparent process based on inspection, documentation, and verified market research. All appraisals rely on visual examination and client-supplied documents such as ownership, registration, VIN/serial identifiers, and photos. Items are not disassembled or mechanically tested. Each report includes photographic evidence and comparable market research from verified sources (AutoTrader, Kijiji, NADA, CarGurus, J.D. Power, etc.) to determine Fair Market or Liquidation Value as of the appraisal date. CEAC acts as an independent third-party—not a government, insurer, or legal authority.
