CARL THUROW APPRAISALS

Qualifications

I have raised and purchased horses that have gone to rodeo arenas as well as the World Paint Horse Show where they have won numerous awards as well as national championships. I have back grounded cattle in a growing yard, run mother cow and stocker cattle. I have been involved in farming irrigated and dry land crops for over 40 years. Having bought and sold hundreds of thousands of dollars in farm equipment, horses and cattle, I feel I am well qualified to make an honest appraisal. I received my appraiser's certification from the American Society of Equine Appraisers in 1999. In 2003 I successfully completed their Advanced Principles of Valuation Course. I am experienced in Equine, Livestock, and Farm Equipment appraisals. My cases involve insurance, divorce, estate, bankruptcy, gift, and expert witness.
