Title: Appraiser for a Converted Eagle
Post by: Catskinner! on May 10, 2007, 07:39:02 PM
Does anyone know of an Appraiser in the North East, that I could get
to look at a Eagle Coach located at Luke's place in New Jersey.

possibly get an Appraisal on it.

interesting company.....curiuos as to what the appraisal methodolgy is for conversions.......most appraisals I have seen from RV appraisal companies on bus conversions are either way low or way high.



And to do it all from pictures?  Pictures lie......sometimes both ways ( good or bad)...I have gone to look at many buses that the photos looked great...even great looking video......only to find  lots of problems......then to go look at the pics/vid to see the exact place shown in closeup with no visual evidence.

I suggest this guy call Luke and get his quick opinion on it as far as normal Eagle issues.....offer to pay......then go  see it himself.

What year and Model?
Proffesional conversion or home job?
