Contact us today to discuss your unique estate appraisal specifications and how we can put our experience to work for you. Settling an estate commonly demands an appraisal to establish fair market value for the property therein. We know that in times like this, even thinking about an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. Because of this, often there can be times that the date of an appraisal differs from the time of death. Dylan Stidham assures that our staff are familiar with the procedures and requirements requested by the IRS and MO revenue agencies to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethical requirements explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) conforms our appraisers to confidentiality, ensuring the highest degree of discretion for you and your loved ones. People often forget that the IRS requires reports filed to explain 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 definitely demonstrate to the MO agencies that the numbers used are well-founded and substantiated. Dylan Stidham guarantees an well-founded report, which will provide an executor solid facts and numbers that will meet IRS and state agency requirements. 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 important requirements in a report is an appraiser-supported opinion of value in an exhaustive reason as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion. |
