Contra Costa County
Two owners died on different dates
When jointly owned property may require separate values for two different dates of death.
Real estate values can change materially between the deaths of two owners, even when the same property and ownership structure are involved.
Contra Costa County estates may involve everything from older West County homes and central-county suburbs to hillside, luxury, rural-edge, and Delta-oriented residential properties.
Separate retrospective analyses may be needed so the estate’s advisors have a supported value for each applicable date rather than one blended estimate.
