As an executor, you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of a loved one as quickly and respectfully as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much respect to the feelings of everyone involved.Part of F. Lee Appraisal Services's mission statement is to supply top-notch, ethical appraisals that attorneys can depend on. There are required needs for everyone; we understand these requirements and are comfortable with collaborating with all parties involved. In relation to our experience in dealing with the legal system and various agencies, we offer reports that always meet all expectations.
Settling an estate most often requires an appraisal to suggest market value for the house therein. We understand that in this time of loss, acquiring an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. So, it's possible the date an appraisal report is needed will not match the date of death. F. Lee Appraisal Services assures that our staff is comfortable with the procedures and requirements needed by the federal and California revenue agencies to produce a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and market value estimate matching the exact date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our staff to confidentiality, assuring the highest degree of privacy for all parties involved. Most of the time, people do not fully appreciate the requirement to have a complete appraisal supplied in support of the numbers displayed in tax documents filed with the IRS. An accurate report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is required to back the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. In having a report backed by F. Lee Appraisal Services's professional appraisers, you will have the understanding that the numbers provided in the appraisal report will clearly demonstrate to the California agencies that the numbers used are well founded and correct. An executor will be ecstatic by an appraisal report by F. Lee Appraisal Services which will provide him undeniable facts and figures to work with any legal agency's requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we will always be there to stand behind the appraisal if it is ever challenged. |
