Services
Estate Appraisal
Estate appraisals determine fair market value of real estate for inheritance purposes. This valuation establishes a stepped-up tax basis, reducing heirs' capital gains tax liabilities. Our certified appraisers provide detailed reports required for probate court proceedings and estate tax filings.
Divorce Appraisal
Divorce appraisals establish equitable property values during marital dissolution. We assess real estate assets to ensure fair division between spouses. Our reports meet legal standards for court submissions, covering primary residences, investment properties, and vacation homes across the Bay Area.
Property Appraisal
General property appraisals support buying, selling, or refinancing decisions. Licensed appraisers inspect property condition, size, and upgrades. We analyze comparable sales data to deliver accurate market values required by lenders and homeowners.
Date of Death Appraisal
Date of Death appraisals establish property value as of the owner's passing. Required for estate tax reporting and asset distribution, these valuations consider market conditions within six months of death to ensure compliance with IRS regulations.
Property Tax Appeal Appraisal
Tax appeal appraisals challenge unfair property assessments. We provide evidence-based valuations demonstrating discrepancies between assessed values and current market conditions, helping property owners reduce tax burdens through formal appeals processes.
