Our company is comfortable with the systems and requirements necessary to perform a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date your loved one passed away.

Many people do not understand that the IRS requires information filed to express the numbers involved in estate sales.

An exhaustive report showing the appraiser's opinion of value is important to support the methods the appraiser used to come to his conclusions. This sort of report will clearly demonstrate the evidence that the numbers expressed within the report are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional report from Woodley Insurance & Realestate gives the executor definite facts and figures to work with in going beyond IRS and IA state agency requirements. You need not be concerned over anything, because we will be there to stand by our appraisals if they are ever challenged.

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