Bay Area Date of Death Appraiser › Kentfield Date of Death Appraisal › Stepped-Up Basis Appraisal
Inherited real estate may require a supported fair market value as of a date of death or another applicable historical date for estate and tax-basis records.
The appraisal should reflect the Kentfield market and comparable sales associated with the historical effective date rather than today's pricing.
Major remodeling, additions, pools, accessory improvements, landscaping, or complete redevelopment completed later should be separated from the property as it existed historically.
Usable land, views, privacy, access, tree cover, topography, and site improvements should reflect conditions on the valuation date.
For probate, estate settlement, trust administration, IRS reporting, and stepped-up basis purposes in this area, see the main Kentfield date of death appraisal page or the broader James Valdez appraisal service areas.
