Generally, settling an estate requires an detailed appraisal report to suggest fair market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We know that in this time of loss, ordering an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. Because of this, now and then there are times that the effective date of an appraisal report deviates from the date of your loss. We are familiar with the procedures and requirements needed to produce a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us to confidentiality, providing the strongest degree of privacy for you and your family.
