Settling an estate generally requires an appraisal to determine fair market value for the residential property in question. We sympathize that in times like this, ordering an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. Due to this, there is a chance that the time of death differs from the date the appraisal is ordered. Our staff is accustomed to the procedures and requirements necessary to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes us to confidentiality, assuring the fullest degree of discretion for you.
