Settling an estate generally depends on an appraisal to show fair market value for the home therein. We understand that when you lose a loved one, ordering an appraisal report is the furthest thought from your mind. Due to this, it is possible that the date of death differs from the date the appraisal is needed. We are accustomed to the systems and requirements needed to supply a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date of death. The ethical obligations explained within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) attunes our appraisers to confidentiality, assuring the fullest degree of discretion for you and your family.

In having a report backed by Anow's professional staff, you will have the understanding that the numbers displayed in the report will definitely demonstrate to the ON agencies that the numbers used are accurate and substantiated.

Having a professional report from Anow gives the executor definite facts and figures to work with in meeting IRS and ON state agency requirements. You need not be concerned over anything, because Anow will be there to stand by our appraisals if they are ever refuted.

Opinions of value shown in documents provided to the revenue authorities absolutely should be backed by an exhaustive report as to how the appraiser came to his conclusions.
