In order to become a HV$ appraiser, our staff members are required to hold accreditation from the American Society of Appraisers. Each appraiser is further required to go above and beyond by taking the complete series of principles of valuation courses and the aircraft specialty exam. Our appraisers are Accredited Senior Appraisers (ASA) with individual helicopter appraisal experience ranging from eight years to thirty-five years. Our analysts are in training to reach the goal of ASA accreditation. The appraiser staff remains current with USPAP course updates every two years. HV$ senior staff are respected and warmly welcomed everywhere in the helicopter and aviation finance industries. They have published over 50 seminars, webinars and articles. These offerings have been presented to respected organizations and publications such as the National Aircraft Finance Association (NAFA), Equipment Leasing and Finance Association (ELFA), Helicopter Association International, Helitech International, American Society of Appraisers, IMN Structured Finance, AIRTEC and Corporate Jet Investor; feature articles published in Rotor Magazine, Rotor & Wing, M&TS Journal, Rotorcraft Pro, Helicopter Annual, Vertical, Valuation Strategies Journal, Aviation Business Daily, AIN Convention News, Monitor, Top Flight Magazine, and more. HV$’ appraisals uphold the highest industry standards, from the minimum requirement of the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice and International Valuation Standards, to the Principles and Ethics of the American Society of Appraisers. We are regularly engaged globally in legal opinions of value because of our recognized expertise, experience, and reputation.
