AW Fine and Decorative Arts Market Confidence Survey

The first quarter is just about over and I would like to remind all AW Blog readers that I will soon be posting the Appraiser Workshops Fine and Decorative Arts Market Confidence Survey online.  I plan on posting the April survey questionnaire within the next few days.

The survey has been popular, having seen over 800 views and downloads with very little promotion other than posts on the AW Blog and some notices on LinkedIn groups.  I expect the popularity and use to grow over time. As more data is collected and as trending and indexing become possible in the future the AW Decorative Arts Market Confidence Survey will become an important tool for the professional appraiser.  That is why it is important for appraisers, dealers, and specialists continue to take the survey.

When the April results are posted, appraisers, specialists, dealers and collectors will be able to track a market sector confidence over the past 9 months in quarterly increments, and have a reliable source to reference and support value changes and market trends.

When posted, I would appreciate all AW Blog readers with market knowledge to please complete the survey.  It is an excellent tool for the appraiser, dealer, gallerist or auction specialist to use.  The results will be posted for download by the middle of April for download, review and use.

Watch for the survey request to be posted on the AW Blog within the next few days. Please support this important project by completing the short survey. (To download the previous quarters report (PDF), click HERE).
