An Experienced Appraiser for an Estate Property
Tom Wagner brings more than 50 years of appraisal experience to Action Appraisal. Executors, families, and their advisors can request an independent residential valuation for the date their estate matter requires.
Choose the Value Date Before Ordering
A home may need a value as of the date of death, another past date, or its current condition for a planned sale. Share the date requested by the estate’s attorney or accountant so the appraisal answers the right question. A later inspection can still support a retrospective appraisal.
Inherited Homes Often Have an Incomplete Paper Trail
Older Austin homes, suburban houses held for decades, and Burnet County acreage may have additions or improvements missing from public records. Photographs, old listings, surveys, and family knowledge can help document the property. Describe any cleanout or renovation after the value date; those changes help distinguish the earlier home from what exists today.
What if the family is deciding between a buyout and a sale?
Explain both possibilities when requesting the appraisal. Action Appraisal can discuss the value date and report needed for the property; your legal or tax advisor determines how to use it in the estate.
