Estate & Trust Valuations
Our estate and trust appraisal services support attorneys, CPAs, fiduciaries, and private clients in establishing fair market value for tax reporting, trust administration, and estate planning purposes. We specialize in retrospective (date-of-death) valuations and ensure alignment with IRS and U.S. Treasury requirements. With experience handling high-value and complex estates, we provide detailed documentation and stand ready to support any audit or legal inquiry that may follow.
Retrospective Valuations
Retrospective appraisals are conducted to determine a property’s value as of a prior effective date. Common in estate, legal, and litigation contexts, these assignments require a historical lens and careful market reconstruction. Our reports include detailed sales analysis supported by archival data and local market trends corresponding to the target valuation period. We frequently perform retrospective valuations for tax reporting, probate proceedings, and legal disputes.

Date of Death Valuations
Appraisals for date of death are typically ordered by estate executors, attorneys, or financial planners to satisfy IRS reporting requirements or to establish a basis for inheritance. These assignments require a credible opinion of fair market value as of the decedent’s date of passing. We provide documented, defensible appraisals that meet IRS standards, assisting clients in navigating sensitive estate matters with professionalism and discretion.
Divorce Appraisals
We offer impartial, supportable valuation services for clients navigating divorce proceedings. Our divorce appraisals are developed with sensitivity to the legal process and may be used for settlement negotiations, court filings, or formal division of assets. We are experienced in working with both individual parties and legal counsel, providing timely reports that meet court standards and can be supplemented with expert witness testimony if necessary.
Expert Witness Testimony
We provide expert witness services for litigation, arbitration, and administrative hearings involving real property valuation. With experience testifying in court and supporting legal teams across a range of case types—including disputes over value, partition actions, and family law matters—we offer clear, objective, and defensible appraisal testimony. Reports are prepared with litigation in mind, including robust narrative support, documented methodology, and adherence to USPAP and local court standards.
Private Party Appraisals
Private clients often request appraisals for planning, decision-making, or verification purposes outside of a formal transaction. These may include pre-listing opinions, verification of cash purchases, portfolio valuation, or assessment of property improvements. We offer confidential, unbiased appraisal services tailored to private needs. Our appraisals enable homeowners, investors, and advisors to make informed decisions with reliable market insights and valuation expertise.

Each assignment is developed in compliance with USPAP and incorporates current market data, rent surveys, and income modelling where applicable.
