Valuing Book Collections For Probate

When valuing an estate for probate you must include book collections, rare and antiquarian books ephemera, or works on paper that have considerable value. If the deceased owned or had an interest in any of these items it becomes part of the estate assets that Inland Revenue will want to be valued for probate purposes and IHT calculations. Our valuation will be by HM Revenue and Customs guidelines as the market value and realistic selling price. We use cataloged retail prices or auction prices and take each item valued on its merit and condition.

To date, Avery Associates have never had a valuation rejected by HMRC and we are available to carry out any size or type of book valuation for probate. For further advice or a free consultation please contact us at any of the numbers above.
