appraisers
They estimate worth
Appraisers are professionals who estimate the value of property, assets, or goods.
Real estate appraisers assess homes and buildings for sales, loans, or tax purposes.
Other appraisers specialize in jewelry, antiques, art, or insurance claims.
The bank required an appraiser before approving the mortgage.
Estate appraisers valued the collection at two million dollars.
