Domain Appraisals

Hiya Trixie

I'm not sure about taking an appraised domain you already own to a bank and borrowing against it. What I've heard is that their appraisals are being used by companies that offer financing to purchase more domain names. For most people it probably would be harder to find a banker who understands the adult business well-enough to realize why some domains/websites are worth so much more than others.

You might check with www.domaincapital.com (a Moniker partner) which does mention on their website that they offer funding services to existing domain owners too.

There are a few of the domain "real-estate" companies that have come into being in the last year and a half - and are doing quite well at giving out loans/pawning etc based on their valuation in-house. Of course there are some scammers out there as well that will tell you that they "might" be interested if you will pay them an appraisal fee up front - watch out for anyone that wants to charge you unless you know them very well!!!

Jim - feel free to send me over a list and Ill give you a quick lookover value for them and what you could get with a broker
