Alison Ross Appraisals

Had a brief consultation with Alison regarding markets and pricing for original art and photography for emerging artists. Alison was very forthcoming with the wealth of information and contacts she has and was quick to respond and meet with me. It's clear her years of experience in the field are of benefit to all who need it in the art and art appraisals world.

Engaging Alison for a walk-through of our home to identify and value various items was one of the best investments we could have made. She's knowledgeable, personable, and willingly shares a wealth of helpful information. We now understand the financial value of many items, we learned more about various heirlooms and other items, and we're in a much better position to make decisions about our possessions when needed. We cannot recommend her highly enough!

I engaged Alison Ross to appraise the contents of my parents' house in preparation for settling their estate, and highly recommend her. She was prompt, professional, courteous, efficient - and empathetic to our situation. On completion of her home visit, her detailed documentation of items plus their estimated values followed very quickly, and her response to follow-up enquiries was prompt. Alison Ross established an immediate sense of trust, which put us at ease through the entire process, and I would unreservedly recommend her for the quality of her professional qualifications and experience, and her personal attributes and business approach.

I do not often write reviews. When I do it’s either to give praise when praise is truly deserved, or to warn others if I experience a service that’s been profoundly underwhelming. Fortunately, it gives me great pleasure to say…
For several years now I have been availing myself of Alison Ross Appraisals. Alison has visited my home to assess a wide variety of pieces, from fine art to a range of antiques. I have always found her to be astute, professional to a “T” and highly knowledgeable. She brings broad expertise to an intimidating field, allowing her the rope to be gently frank when such frankness is required. Her reports, though clear and concise, are thoroughly researched and well documented, leaving no doubt as to their veracity.
Finally, Alison has always been a genuine pleasure to work with, and I have absolutely no reservations in recommending her extraordinary services to others.

Alison came to my house to provide information about some prints I inherited. She was so pleasant and knowledgeable. This is not my first encounter with Alison. A few years ago, I met her to discuss an estate and she was very professional then and offered great advice.
