Appraisals for Estate Settlement by Cory Murphy

Settling an estate is an important and sometimes stressful task. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the departed as swiftly and respectfully as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much sensitivity to the feelings of everyone in bereavement.

Lawyers and accountants depend on our ideals when calculating real estate values for estates, divorces, or other disputes requiring a cost being placed on real property. We are sympathetic to their needs and are acclimated to helping with all parties involved. We compose appraisal reports that meet the obligations of the legal system and different groups.

Commonly, settling an estate necessitates an irrefutable appraisal report to suggest fair market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. It's understandable that thinking about getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Due to this, now and then the date of death differs from the date the appraisal is required. We are comfortable with the practices and requirements needed to supply a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes our appraisers to confidentiality, certifying the highest degree of privacy for you.

People often forget that the IRS requires information filed to show the numbers involved in estate sales.

In having a report backed by Cory Murphy's expert staff, you will have the understanding that the numbers displayed in the report will certainly demonstrate to the IRS that the numbers used are accurate and substantiated.

Having a professional appraisal from Cory Murphy gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and VA state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we will always be there to stand behind the report if it is ever challenged.

One of the most essential requirements in an appraisal report is an appraiser-supported opinion of value in an exhaustive reason as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion.
