Settling an estate commonly demands an appraisal to determine fair market value for the property in question. It's understandable that ordering an appraisal is the farthest thought from your mind.

People often forget that the IRS requires reports filed to express the numbers involved in estate sales.

An exhaustive report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is necessary to back the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. In having a report supported by Prime Appraisals's professional staff, you will have the knowledge that the numbers provided in the appraisal will definitely demonstrate to the IRS that the numbers used are well founded and substantiated.

Prime Appraisals guarantees an detailed appraisal, which will provide an executor definite facts and figures that will meet IRS and revenue agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we are there to stand behind the report if it is ever refuted.

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