Usually, settling an estate necessitates an extensive appraisal report to show market value for the home to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We know that when you lose a loved one, ordering an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. So, it's possible the time an appraisal report is needed will not match the date of death. Our company is accustomed to the procedures and requirements necessary to perform a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and market value estimate matching the exact date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethical requirements explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our staff to confidentiality, ensuring the highest degree of privacy for all parties involved.

Most people don't realize that the IRS requires information filed to explain the numbers involved in estate sales.

Opinions of value shown in documents filed with the IRS and Idaho agencies absolutely should be supported by an accurate report as to how the appraiser came to his conclusions. This level of documentation will definitely substantiate the evidence that the values presented are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional report from Lakeshore Appraisals gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and Idaho 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.
