Our team is experienced in working with courts, understands the documentation standards required in litigation and settlement, and consistently delivers appraisal reports that stand up to legal scrutiny.

Accurate, Retrospective Appraisals for Estate Settlement

Estate administration often requires a retrospective appraisal to determine the property’s market value as of the date of death. We understand that during times of loss, securing an appraisal may not be top of mind. Our certified appraisers are skilled in preparing retrospective reports that meet legal and IRS standards while respecting the privacy and emotional considerations of your clients.

We strictly follow the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), ensuring confidentiality, impartiality, and the highest level of ethical service.

IRS, State & Court-Ready Valuations

Many estate, tax, and government filings require a documented, well-supported opinion of value. Our reports provide:

  • A defensible opinion of market value
  • Detailed analysis supporting how the value was determined
  • Documentation that satisfies IRS requirements and Washington State agencies
  • Clear, reliable data for attorneys, executors, and fiduciaries

Our appraisals are comprehensive, transparent, and backed by the expertise needed for legal proceedings or tax compliance.
