Fair Market Value Reports  Fair Market Value (FMV) is defined as the estimated amount, expressed in terms of money, that may reasonably be expected for the equipment, in exchange, between a willing buyer and a willing seller, neither under any compulsion to buy or sell, with both parties reasonably cognizant of all relevant facts and circumstances. Orderly Liquidation Value (OLV) is the estimated gross amount expressed in terms of money, that could be typically realized from a liquidation sale, given a reasonable period of time to find a purchaser, with the seller being compelled to sell on an as-is where-is basis, as of a specific date. No freight, installation or software charges are included in the values quoted for the equipment.  If you would like further information on the Fair Market Value Reports please call 949-831-8700 ext. 27.
