Appraiser Inquiries
Can the VA handle sensitive provenance data?
Yes. We understand the confidentiality required in high-value appraisal. Our VAs are internally vetted and work under strict NDAs. We can operate within your existing secure cloud drives or inventory platforms with restricted access.
What if I have an urgent auction deadline?
Our managed service allows for rapid response. If you have a major estate sale or auction deadline, your Project Manager can coordinate the VA's hours to prioritize high-volume listing and cataloging to ensure you never miss a gavel.
Is management really free?
Yes. Sagedoer’s core value is our management layer. We provide a dedicated Project Manager to supervise your VA, handle reporting, and ensure quality at no extra cost. You pay strictly for the VA’s pure work hours.
