Settling an estate most often depends on an appraisal to establish fair market value for the estate therein. We sympathize that in this time of loss, even thinking about an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. Due to this, often the date of death differs from the time the appraisal is required. Vanessa Giles assures that our staff are familiar with the procedures and requirements requested by the IRS and WI revenue agencies to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) conforms us to confidentiality, providing the strongest degree of discretion for you and your loved ones.

Often, people do not fully acknowledge the need to have a comprehensive appraisal produced in support of the numbers being used in tax documents filed with revenue authorities.

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

An executor will be satisfied by an appraisal by Vanessa Giles which will show him solid facts and figures to work with the IRS and WI state agencies' requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we are there to stand behind the report if it is ever challenged.
