Rivers Appraisals understands the special needs of estate executors

Settling an estate is an important and sometimes stressful task. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the deceased as swiftly and exactly as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much compassion to the feelings of everyone involved.

Part of Rivers Appraisals's drive is to create top-notch, ethical appraisals that lawyers can depend on. There are specific needs for everyone; we realize these needs and are comfortable to working with all parties involved. In relation to our familiarity in working with the legal system and various agencies, we supply appraisals that definitely transcend all expectations.

Settling an estate generally demands an appraisal to establish fair market value for the home therein. We know that when you lose a loved one, acquiring an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. Due to this, often the date of death differs from the time the appraisal is requested. Rivers Appraisals assures that we are comfortable with the procedures and requirements requested by revenue services to supply a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date of death. The ethics provision listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our staff to confidentiality, assuring the highest degree of discretion for all parties involved.

The requirement of ordering an appraisal report when cooperating with the IRS to explain income when filing documents is often overlooked by most people.

A comprehensive report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is required to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. In having a report backed by Rivers Appraisals's expert staff, you will have the understanding that the numbers shown in the appraisal will clearly demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are accurate and correct.

An executor will be satisfied by an appraisal report by Rivers Appraisals which will give him irrefutable facts and numbers to deal with any legal agency's requirements. You need not be concerned over anything, because Rivers Appraisals will be there to stand by our reports if they are ever refuted.

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