It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Due to this, there is a chance that the date of death differs from the date the appraisal is required. Our professional staff is comfortable with the practices and requirements necessary to supply a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethical requirements listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our staff to confidentiality, certifying the fullest degree of discretion for all parties involved.
