Our staff is comfortable with the systems and requirements needed to produce a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps us to confidentiality, guaranteeing the strongest degree of privacy for you.
