Settling an estate most often requires an appraisal to show fair market value for the property affected. It's understandable that ordering an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Due to this, sometimes the date of death differs from the date the appraisal is needed. Our professional staff is comfortable with the practices and requirements needed to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethical obligations listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes our company to confidentiality, guaranteeing the strongest degree of privacy for all parties involved.

The necessity of owning an appraisal when cooperating with government agencies to explain income when filing documents is often not considered by most people.

Opinions of value shown in documents provided to the revenue authorities absolutely should be backed by a detailed report as to how the appraiser acquired his conclusions. Such a report will clearly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are well-founded and correct.

Having a professional appraisal report from Authentic Appraisal Group LLC gives the executor definite facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and SC state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we assure you that we will stand behind the appraisal if it is ever refuted.

One of the most important requirements in an appraisal report is an appraiser-supported opinion of value in a detailed reason as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion.
