Estate settlement is an important and sometimes stressful job. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the deceased as promptly and respectfully as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much compassion to the feelings of everyone involved.

We've made it our company's goal in producing top-notch appraisals that lawyers and accountants have come to depend on. Often, all parties will have differing suggestions of how the appraisal process should work; however, our experience of the estate process will, without a doubt, satisfy all parties involved. Due to our experience in dealing with attorneys and accountants and various agencies, we write appraisals that always transcend all expectations.

Settling an estate usually demands an appraisal to determine fair market value for the estate therein. We understand that in this time of loss, ordering an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. So, it's possible the date an appraisal is requested will be different from the date of death. A4 Appraisal Professional Corp. assures that we are familiar with the procedures and requirements needed by revenue services to provide a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the date you suffered the loss of your loved one. The ethics provision listed within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) conforms us to confidentiality, certifying the highest degree of discretion for you and your family.

People often forget that the IRS requires information filed to express the numbers involved in estate sales.

One of the most essential requirements in an appraisal is an appraiser-backed opinion of value in a detailed reason as to how the appraiser came to his conclusion. This sort of report will definitely substantiate your claim that the numbers displayed within the report are well-founded and accurate.

Having a professional appraisal from A4 Appraisal Professional Corp. gives the executor solid facts and figures to work with in exceeding IRS and IL state agency requirements. It assures peace of mind to everyone concerned because we will always be there to stand behind the appraisal report if it is ever challenged.

Opinions of value used in documents filed with the revenue authorities definitely should be backed by an exhaustive report as to how the appraiser acquired his conclusions.
