Bay Area Date of Death Appraiser › San Anselmo Date of Death Appraisal › Retrospective Appraisal
A retrospective appraisal develops value for a date that has already passed using market conditions and buyer behavior existing on that effective date.
Valley-floor homes, lower-slope neighborhoods, wooded hillside properties, and low-density ridge locations can represent different buyer alternatives.
When an unusual site or older home has few close matches, relevant evidence may extend beyond the immediate neighborhood to locations competing for the same buyer.
Topography, access, architecture, condition, usable land, creek influence, privacy, and neighborhood character help determine which historical transactions deserve the most weight.
