Trusted Date-of-Death Appraisal Services in Southern California
When managing a loved one’s estate in Southern California, obtaining a certified Date-of-Death Appraisal is a crucial legal and financial step. This specialized appraisal determines the fair market value of a property as of the date of passing — a mandatory requirement for probate proceedings, inheritance distribution, estate tax filings, and IRS reporting. Without an accurate, defensible appraisal, families, attorneys, and accountants risk legal delays, tax complications, or valuation disputes that can disrupt the estate process.
At Pacific Home Appraisers, we have proudly served clients across Southern California since 2005, completing over 5,000 appraisal assignments. Whether you need a valuation for a luxury coastal estate, urban residence, suburban home, or rural property, our certified appraisers bring unmatched local-market expertise and precision.
A professional retrospective appraisal helps you:
Accurately calculate estate taxes and meet IRS compliance
Provide the necessary documentation for probate court and legal filings
Ensure fair and defensible inheritance distribution among heirs
Establish historical property value for tax, legal, and financial records
Avoid valuation disputes, penalties, or costly delays with certified expert support
In diverse markets across Southern California — from Los Angeles, Orange County, and San Diego to Ventura County, Riverside, and San Bernardino — local expertise is key to producing reliable, defensible valuations that reflect neighborhood trends and market shifts.
