Settling an estate commonly demands an appraisal to acquire market value for the residential property therein. It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Because of this, often there will be times that the date of an appraisal report deviates from the time of death. Our staff is familiar with the procedures and requirements necessary to supply a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and market value estimate matching the date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) conforms us to confidentiality, assuring the highest degree of privacy for you.

People often forget that the IRS requires documents filed to show the numbers involved in estate sales.

Opinions of value used in documents provided to the IRS and Indiana agencies definitely should be backed by a detailed report as to how the appraiser came to his conclusions. This sort of report will definitely show your claim that the values presented are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional report from DRB Appraisal gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in going beyond IRS and Indiana state agency requirements. You need not worry over anything, because we will be there to stand by our work if they are ever challenged.
