Estate Appraisals

Settling an estate is an important job. Attorneys and Accountants rely on appraisals when calculating real property values for estates. We understand their needs and are used to dealing with all parties involved. We provide appraisal reports that meet the requirements of the courts and various agencies. Fees for this type of report vary depending on how complex the assignment is, but can be as low as $200.

Settling an estate usually requires an appraisal to establish Fair Market Value for the property involved. Because the date of death differs from the date the property is inspected it is important to use the services of an experienced appraiser that is familiar with the procedures and requirements necessary to perform this type of report. A reliable appraisal report is very important to support the numbers being used in documents filed with revenue authorities.

Opinions of value used in documents filed with the revenue authorities should be supported by a detailed report as to how the appraiser arrived at his conclusions. Such a report will certainly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are well founded and substantiated.

You can depend on Appalachian Appraisal Company to give the executor solid facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we are there to stand behind the appraisal if it is challenged.
