William Novotny has a very special and important credential. In 2002 he was the first personal property appraiser in the USA to be certified through The Appraisal Foundation to teach the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP).

Based on that credential, and his extensive experience, William Novotny can review any personal property appraisal report for conformance to USPAP prior to submission to the home owner. This ensures and confirms the credibility of a DART appraisal report. You, and any other intended user you choose to identify can trust and rely upon a report that has signed USPAP certification statement. It is a heavy responsibility. We do what must be done. Since 2002, William (Bill) Novotny has regularly taught an online 7-hour USPAP update course nationwide. He was teaching USPAP online during the LA wild fire.

The DART team has access to many competent and willing qualified personal property appraisers locally and nation wide. They can work for us on your behalf. We can review and confirm that their part of the report is credible and appropriate and USPAP certified.

In 2005 Bill Novotny was hired by Ventura County to appraise the personal property losses of the victims that were buried in their homes by the La Conchita land slide near Santa Barbara. The side of the mountain, thousands of tons, collapsed and buried several homes and 10 victims.

To prepare for this challenging appraisal Novotny consulted widely with his most experienced peers regarding all the relevant issues that apply. He ended up publishing an article in the Journal of Advanced Appraisal Studies. NOTE: CLICK THE BELOW LINK to open and peruse the article...when finished reading close the link window:

Over 45 years of market experience. Personal property appraiser with disaster appraisal and USPAP

Hi. I'm William Novotny. My son is Bryan. He is also an ISA accredited appraiser. We have worked together for years.

Appraisers know... There is no bulls-eye! When developing a personal property disaster appraisal hitting the target is the objective based on a sufficient scope of work and compliance with USPAP requirements.

When a personal property appraiser is establishing fair market value their research conclusions must reflect completed sales of comparably identified objects that sold in the most active secondary market where comparable objects most commonly sell with reasonable exposure time.

This is a demanding research process requiring considerable competency, knowledge and market experience. The appraiser must rely upon your description to find comparable sales in the relevant market using the proper value approach and the appropriate value definition.

When insurance replacement cost becomes the objective then the comparable retail new market is searched to establish a cost basis based on the insurance policy terms, arbitration, mediation or litigation. A proper appraisal can be essential to support your loss claim.

It is not an easy task. It requires considerable knowledge, experience, professional competency, ethical conduct and compliance with USPAP when performing as a credible appraiser.
