Marin County
Tenant-occupied
When tenants remain in the property and the estate still needs a supported residential value with realistic inspection access.
In Marin County, hillside, village, Bay-facing, and West Marin homes each bring their own condition and access realities after a death, and those facts belong in the estate file early. Tenant-occupied is one of the condition and occupancy situations that regularly shows up in estate work here.
Tenant-occupied Marin houses or condos need scheduled access and a stated intended use.
For this Marin County situation, gather lease basics if available, tenant contact path for access, intended use of the appraisal, and the valuation date.
James provides independent residential appraisal and, where appropriate, consulting on whether repairs or remodeling before sale make market sense. He does not provide legal, tax, title, permit, or estate-administration advice; those questions stay with the attorney, CPA, and other Core 4 professionals.
