Hallmark Properties, Inc. knows the special needs of estate executors

The task of settling an estate, while stressful is very important. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the departed as quickly and exactly as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much respect to the feelings of everyone involved.

Attorneys and accountants count on our ethics when calculating real property values for estates, divorces, or other disputes requiring a cost being placed on real property. Usually, the parties involved will have their own ideas of how the appraisal process should work; however, our knowledge of the estate process will, without a doubt, satisfy all parties involved. In our company, we are used to interacting with law offices in composing reports that out-strip their necessities.

Settling an estate commonly requires an appraisal to acquire fair market value for the house in question. It's understandable that ordering getting an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind. Because of this, now and then there will be times that the date of an appraisal deviates from the time of death. Hallmark Properties, Inc. assures that our appraisers are knowledgeable about the procedures and requirements requested by the IRS and VA revenue agencies to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethics provision explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) keeps our company to confidentiality, certifying the strongest degree of privacy for you and your loved ones.

Many times, people do not fully appreciate the necessity in having a comprehensive appraisal prepared in support of the numbers shown in tax documents filed with the IRS.

An accurate report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is required to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. A report of this caliber will certainly show the evidence that the numbers displayed within the report are well-founded and accurate.

An executor will be ecstatic by a report by Hallmark Properties, Inc. which will provide him undeniable facts and numbers to cooperate with any legal agency's requirements. There's no need to be stressed out when getting an appraisal from us, because we will support it no matter what.

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