Generally, settling an estate requires an accurate appraisal report to acquire fair market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We empathize that when you lose a loved one, acquiring an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. Due to this, there is a chance that the time of death differs from the time the appraisal is ordered. Delux Appraisals assures that we are comfortable with the procedures and requirements requested by the IRS and CA revenue agencies to produce a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethical obligations explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) conforms our staff to confidentiality, assuring the strongest degree of discretion for all parties involved.

Many people do not understand that the IRS requires documents filed to explain the numbers involved in estate sales.

An accurate report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is important to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. Such a report will clearly demonstrate to the CA agencies that the numbers used are accurate and correct.

Delux Appraisals will provide an accurate appraisal, which will give an executor solid facts and figures that will exceed IRS and revenue agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we will always be there to stand behind the appraisal report if it is ever challenged.

Opinions of value used in documents filed with the the IRS and CA state agencies definitely should be backed by a comprehensive report as to how the appraiser arrived at his conclusions.
