      NIA Research and Documentation
      The National Institute of Appraisers (NIA) has amassed an unparalleled
      computerized database on the world's important works of art that regularly
      appear at auction. Our primary database has the results of over 900,000
      works by nearly 80,000 artists. Results from 500 auction houses throughout
      the world are documented. Other databases fill a key need in helping
      evaluate art that is not handled by international auction houses. This
      "non-auction" art represents 98% of art work bought and sold
      annually. 
      NIA Certified Appraisals have been specifically designed to meet the
      requirements of insurance carriers and our Certified Appraisals for fine
      art donations are based on the latest Internal Revenue Service
      regulations. 
      The NIA appraisal is based on Fair Market "Replacement"
      Value. It is the price the art would sell for on the open market. It is
      the price that would be
      agreed on between a willing buyer and a willing seller, with neither being
      required to act and both having a reasonable knowledge of the relevant
      facts. 
      Clients
      NIA has appraised thousands of private, corporate and municipal
      collections, nationwide. Our appraisers are regularly called upon to
      consult with government agencies including the IRS, FBI, RTC, DEA and the
      US Marshall's offices. 
      Fees
      NIA has a preprinted fee schedule and fees are based on a flat fee-per-item
      schedule, determined and paid for in advance. 
      NO NIA CERTIFIED APPRAISAL HAS EVER BEEN OVERTURNED OR
      REJECTED BY AN INSURANCE CARRIER OR THE IRS
