Marin County
Heirs disagree about condition or needed repairs
When beneficiaries have different views about the property’s condition and how much work it needs before sale, transfer, or buyout.
One heir may see a livable family home while another sees substantial deferred maintenance, making informal value discussions difficult.
Marin County estates may include hillside and view homes, custom residences, condominiums, waterfront-influenced property, ADUs, and homes owned by the same family for many years.
An appraisal provides an independent market-value opinion based on the defined condition and date, but it does not decide who should pay for repairs or which work should be completed.
