Usually, settling an estate necessitates an clear appraisal report to acquire fair market value for the property to the satisfaction of the parties involved. It's understandable that thinking about getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Because of this, often there are times that the date of an appraisal report deviates from the date of your loss. Sue is knowledgeable about the procedures and requirements needed by the IRS and CA revenue agencies to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date you suffered the loss of your loved one.

This sort of report will definitely substantiate your claim that the numbers provided within the report are well-founded and accurate.
