In addition to the very agonizing process of mourning, there's a lot for the executor of a will to do after the death of a relative or friend.
As an executor, you have to work closely with real estate professionals to facilitate the settlement process and most importantly, to fulfill the wishes of the departed loved one as accurately as possible.
A date of death appraisal is crucial for the executor when liquidating a home after the owner dies.
Such an appraisal requires special expertise so as it can hold up in court, as well as satisfy the 1) United States Treasury Department Standards, 2) State of California laws, 3) IRS Standards, and 4) Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP*).
