We understand their needs and are used to working with all parties involved. We offer appraisal reports that meet the obligations of the courts and different groups. Contact us as soon as possible to discuss your exact estate appraisal demands and how we can put our knowledge to work for you. Commonly, settling an estate requires an accurate appraisal report to determine fair market value for the house to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We understand that in times like this, even thinking about an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. So, we understand that the date an appraisal report is ordered will differ the date of death. Our professional staff is accustomed to the procedures and requirements obligatory to provide a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date of death. The ethics provision stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds us to confidentiality, certifying the strongest degree of privacy for you and your loved ones. Most people don't realize that the IRS requires documents filed to support the numbers involved in estate sales. An exhaustive report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is necessary to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. In having a report supported by Carr & Associates's expert staff, you will have the peace of mind that the numbers provided in the report will clearly demonstrate to the IRS that the numbers used are accurate and correct. Having a professional report from Carr & Associates gives the executor irrefutable facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and TX state agency requirements. There's no need to worry when getting an appraisal from us, because we will back it no matter what. One of the most necessary requirements in an appraisal is an appraiser-backed opinion of value in a detailed explanation as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion. |
