Estate & Probate
Settle the estate
with a court-ready appraisal.
Estate work demands a retrospective effective date and clean support. We pair a licensed appraiser with documentation built for Form 706 and probate filings, so executors and their advisors aren’t left explaining a number. Starting at $249.
What this appraisal covers
Retrospective valuation
We value the property as of the date of death (or the alternate valuation date), not the inspection date.
Form 706 support
A signed opinion of value with the documentation the IRS expects for federal estate tax returns.
Step-up basis
Establishes a defensible fair-market-value basis for heirs to limit future capital-gains exposure.
Probate & trust settlement
Prepared the way probate courts and trustees expect, with the attorney or executor looped in on delivery.
How it works
You do the walkthrough on your phone. A licensed appraiser does the rest. No strangers in your home, no scheduling, no waiting rooms.
Tell us about the home
Address, basic details, why you need the appraisal. Two minutes.
Scan your home
Walk each room with your phone camera and narrate what you see. The app guides you through the full walkthrough in about 15 minutes.
A licensed appraiser reviews
A state-licensed appraiser in your market reviews your scan, pulls comparable sales, and prepares the report. Typically 48–72 hours.
Get your report
A defensible, USPAP-compliant appraisal you can hand to your tax board, your attorney, your CPA, or your buyer.
We’re not an AVM, a computer model, or a real-estate agent estimate. Every report is prepared under the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) and signed by a licensed appraiser in your state — the same qualification required for mortgage appraisals.
Common questions
A retrospective appraisal that estimates the property’s fair market value as of the date the owner passed away — used for estate tax, probate, and basis step-up.
Yes. A retrospective effective date is standard for estate work; the appraiser analyzes sales available around that historical date.
Yes. Reports are USPAP-compliant and signed by a licensed appraiser, which is the standard the IRS applies to estate-tax valuations.
Usually no — you (or a family member) walk the home with your phone and the appraiser reviews remotely. If the assignment requires an on-site visit, we’ll tell you before you pay.
