When managing an estate after a loved one’s passing, one of the most important tasks is determining the value of any real estate assets. This is where date of death real property appraisals are crucial. Whether you're an executor, heir, or family member, understanding the importance of these appraisals can help ensure the estate is settled fairly, legally, and accurately.
What is a Date of Death Real Property Appraisal?
A date of death real property appraisal is the process of determining the market value of real estate assets as of the exact time of the person’s passing. This appraisal is critical for accurate estate distribution, tax calculations, and legal requirements.
Why It Matters
The date of death value is essential because real estate values can change over time. Appraising property based on the day of death ensures the estate reflects an accurate, fair market value, which is important for tax filings and inheritance distribution.
