Settling an estate usually depends on an appraisal to determine fair market value for the property involved. It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Because of this, now and then there can be times that the date of an appraisal deviates from the time of death. Our staff is knowledgeable about the systems and requirements needed to produce a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps our appraisers to confidentiality, certifying the highest degree of discretion for all parties involved.
