New Services to Collectors: How to Effectively Invest in Art & Passion Assets | LOT-ART (2024)

"Collecting art as an investment is more rewarding in terms of emotional, aesthetic and ownership feelings and less sensitive to the macroeconomic factors which can negatively influence financial markets. Their low correlation with traditional investment instruments generates portfolio’s diversification benefits, especially during times of economic uncertainty." Francesco Gibbi, Founder & CEO | LOT-ART | The Art Investment Platform

Domergue - Mademoiselle avec cheveux brune, First half 20th centuryThis new dedicated service to art collectors will provide analytic market insights to assess the real-time value of an artwork as well as an entire collection for insurance, resale and collateralization purposes.

Comparing upcoming and past auction prices enables Lot-Art to filter out the best deals of the art market when an artwork is estimated lower than its average sale price and will therefore carry a higher potential of liquidity and return on investment.

During the market uncertainty of the current pandemic, top tier auction houses further developed their private sales services as a safer space for sellers to avoid the risk of having a work possibly unsold at auction.

To its members, LOT-ART is offering a service of Private Sales throughout reserved negotiations. With your account, you will be able to request access to the private sales section for both the purchase and resale of artworks priced at or above Euro 50,000 while lower price pieces will be openly presented in the Buy-Now section of the Lot-Art Gallery.
