Shenehon Company

Shenehon Company is a real estate and business valuation firm serving both the public and private sectors throughout the United States, although our geographic concentration is the Upper Midwest. We have worked in over 40 states and are qualified to work in any state. Shenehon Company is dedicated to providing its clients with quality valuations prepared by knowledgeable appraisers and analysts. Staff members incorporate extensive and ongoing education with practical experience performing a wide variety of real estate and business valuations.

Business Valuations - Shenehon Company provides analyses for both operating and holding companies, including controlling and partial interest valuations. Assignments include valuations for estate and gift tax purposes, allocations of purchase price, ESOP planning, franchise rights, business damages, patent and royalty rights, and the valuation of asset and portfolio holdings.

Commercial Real Estate Appraisals - Shenehon's appraiser will meet with you to determine the purpose and function of the appraisal. Once the scope of the project is outlined, we inspect the property with you, become familiar with the neighborhood, and develop a list of comparable land and/or building sales supported by market data. We generally apply all three approaches to value and reconcile the validity of each in the report. Our final opinion of value is clearly stated and supported.

Shenehon appraisers have testified for many purposes, such as shareholder disputes, estate matters, condemnation actions, property tax appeals, marriage dissolution proceedings, and the like. We have represented clients in state and federal courts, as well as arbitration panels and public service commissions. Appraisal reports prepared for litigation comprise a significant portion of our practice. Our methods are recognized and respected, and our analyses are relied upon by the courts.
