Settling an estate most often demands an appraisal to suggest market value for the property involved. We know that when you lose a loved one, even thinking about an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. Of course, you need to take care of your loved ones first. Our company is accustomed to the procedures and requirements needed to provide a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethical obligations stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps us to confidentiality, assuring the strongest degree of privacy for you.

People often forget that the IRS needs documents filed to support the numbers involved in estate sales.

Opinions of value displayed in documents provided to the IRS and Texas agencies definitely should be backed by a detailed report as to how the appraiser came to his conclusions. This level of documentation will certainly show the evidence that the values expressed are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional appraisal from Zacour & Associates, Inc. gives the executor irrefutable facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and Texas state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we are there to stand behind the report if it is ever refuted.
