Settling an estate is an important and sometimes stressful job. As an executor you have been entrusted to carry out the wishes of the departed as quickly and respectfully as possible. You can count on us to act quickly and with as much respect to the feelings of everyone left behind.

Part of The Butler Group's drive is to supply top-notch, ethical appraisals that attorneys can rely on. There are specific needs for everyone; we realize these requirements and are comfortable to dealing with all parties involved. Among our staff, we are used to interacting with law offices in providing reports that meet their requirements.

Usually, settling an estate requires an irrefutable appraisal report to determine fair market value for the property to the satisfaction of the parties involved. We empathize that when you lose a loved one, ordering an appraisal is the furthest thought from your mind. Because of this, now and then there are times that the effective date of an appraisal deviates from the time of death. The Butler Group assures that we are familiar with the procedures and requirements needed by the IRS and OH revenue agencies to provide a retroactive appraisal with an effective date and fair market value estimate matching the exact date your loved one passed away. The ethical obligations stated within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) binds our staff to confidentiality, certifying the strongest degree of discretion for all parties involved.

The necessity of owning an appraisal when dealing with government agencies to show income when filing documents is often overlooked by most people.
