Estate & Probate Appraisals
Clear, defensible residential valuations for estate settlement, inheritance, and legal matters.
When an Estate Needs a Real Value Opinion
Probate and estate work can get messy fast. Family members may need answers. Attorneys need documentation. Executors need a credible number they can rely on. That is where a professional appraisal comes in.
We provide residential estate and probate appraisals across Northeast Florida for current market value and retrospective valuation needs, including date-of-death assignments when required.

- Probate court and estate administration
- Inheritance and equitable distribution among heirs
- Trust administration and fiduciary documentation
- Date-of-death value for tax basis purposes
- Preparation for sale of inherited real estate
What You Can Expect
We inspect the property when appropriate, analyze comparable sales, review condition and market factors, and deliver a professional report that stands up better than a rough guess or online estimate. If the assignment requires a retrospective effective date, we value the property as of that specific date using the market evidence available from that time.
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you work with attorneys and executors?
Yes. Estate and probate assignments are commonly ordered by attorneys, personal representatives, trustees, and heirs.
Can you appraise inherited property before it is sold?
Yes. That is one of the most common reasons people call us.
Do you offer retrospective date-of-death appraisals?
Yes. If the assignment requires a past effective date, we can complete that type of appraisal.
