Settling an estate most often depends on an appraisal to determine fair market value for the house affected. It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. So, it's possible the time an appraisal report is requested will be different from the date of death. Prompt Appraisal assures that our appraisers are familiar with the procedures and requirements needed by the IRS and revenue agencies to provide a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes us to confidentiality, guaranteeing the fullest degree of discretion for you and your loved ones.

Most of the time people do not fully appreciate the need to have an exhaustive appraisal produced in support of the numbers displayed in tax documents filed with revenue authorities.

One of the most important requirements in an appraisal is an appraiser-supported opinion of value in a comprehensive explanation as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion. A report of this caliber will definitely demonstrate the evidence that the numbers within within the report are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional appraisal report from Prompt Appraisal gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and state agency requirements. You need not worry over anything, because Prompt Appraisal will be there to back up our appraisals if they are ever refuted.
