Property Valuations for Estate Settlement by Linda Tabor

The task of settling an estate, often a source of stress is very important. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the departed as quickly and with as much dignity as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much respect to the feelings of everyone in bereavement.

Part of Linda Tabor's mission statement is to produce top-notch, ethical appraisals that lawyers can rely on. There are required needs for everyone; we realize these needs and are familiar to dealing with all parties involved. We produce appraisal reports that surpass the necessities of the legal system and various agencies.

Generally, settling an estate necessitates an extensive appraisal report to determine 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. So, there's a chance the date an appraisal report is requested will not match the date of death. We are comfortable with the systems and requirements necessary to provide a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes us to confidentiality, guaranteeing the highest degree of discretion for you and your family.
