Inherited property may require a supported fair market value as of a date of death or another applicable historical date for estate and tax-basis documentation.
Current Clayton prices cannot establish what the property was worth on the historical date. Period sales and market conditions must support the conclusion.
Condition, improvements, landscaping, lot utility, views, and other relevant characteristics should reflect the property as it existed on the valuation date.
Foothill location, topography, larger lots, open-space influence, school appeal, and neighborhood identity may separate one historical sale from another.
