Overview

Preparation is mostly about clarity: the valuation date required, access to the property, and any facts about how the home was used. If it was rented, say so and provide what income information you have. Keep the finished report with the estate’s permanent records.

What to keep in mind

  • Clarify the valuation date required before the inspection
  • Disclose rental status and income information when it applies
  • Archive the report with the estate records
