Representative work

Names have been changed; details reflect typical client situations.

We weren't sure our collectibles needed a formal appraisal. Pao Yao explained when one wasn't necessary and pointed us toward reliable ways to research market values on our own — saving us time and expense.
Collectibles
Marcus T.
Private collector, Surrey
During a difficult estate settlement, PYK helped us understand which assets warranted a professional appraisal and which could go straight to public auction. That guidance cut through the confusion and kept costs sensible.
Estate & household contents
Helen & Robert W.
Estate beneficiaries, Vancouver
We donated designer handbags and other luxury personal property to a registered charity. PYK prepared independent appraisals that our accountant and the charity were both comfortable relying on.
Charitable donations — luxury goods
Jennifer L.
Charitable donor, West Vancouver
For many years PYK has supported our organization with appraisals for wine collections and other in-kind donations. Donors trust the process, and so do we.
Charitable donations — wine
David C.
Development director, registered charity
PYK's forced liquidation value reports for restaurant equipment, industrial machinery, inventory, and other business assets are thorough and defensible — exactly what we need as bailiffs and trustees.
Commercial & industrial FLV
Sarah M.
Licensed trustee, Burnaby
Before we closed on a business acquisition, PYK inspected the assets on site and verified they reasonably supported the figures on the financial statements. That independent check gave our legal and accounting teams real confidence.
Business transfer & asset verification
Michael O.
Business buyer, Richmond
