Generally, settling an estate requires an irrefutable appraisal report to determine fair market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We know that in times like this, even thinking about an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. Because of this, often there will be times that the effective date of an appraisal report deviates from the time of death. We are comfortable with the systems and requirements needed to supply a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps our company to confidentiality, providing the highest degree of privacy for all parties involved.

Most people don't realize that the IRS requires reports filed to show the numbers involved in estate sales.

An accurate report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is necessary to back the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. Such a report will clearly demonstrate to the FL agencies that the numbers used are well-founded and substantiated.

Having a professional report from LandTrust Appraisals gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and FL state agency requirements. You need not stress over anything, because LandTrust Appraisals will be there to stand by our reports if they are ever refuted.

One of the most significant requirements in an appraisal report is an appraiser-supported opinion of value in a detailed reason as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion.
