Settling an estate usually depends on an appraisal to establish fair market value for the residential property affected. It's understandable that thinking about getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Due to this, it is possible that the time of death differs from the time the appraisal is requested. Debra Hebert Appraisal Services assures that our appraisers are knowledgeable about the procedures and requirements requested by the IRS and LA revenue agencies to produce a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes our appraisers to confidentiality, certifying the fullest degree of discretion for all parties involved.

People often forget that the IRS needs reports filed to express the numbers involved in estate sales.

Opinions of value displayed in documents provided to the revenue authorities absolutely should be backed by an exhaustive report as to how the appraiser acquired his conclusions. Such a report will certainly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are well-founded and correct.

It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we assure you that we will stand behind the appraisal if it is ever refuted.

One of the most essential requirements in an appraisal report is an appraiser-backed opinion of value in a detailed explanation as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion.
