Generally, settling an estate requires an detailed appraisal report to establish fair market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Due to this, there is a chance that the time of death differs from the time the appraisal is required. We are accustomed to the systems and requirements necessary 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 listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps our company to confidentiality, assuring the fullest degree of discretion for you and your family.
