West Hollywood Trust Appraisals — FAQ

What’s the difference between a trust appraisal and a standard home appraisal? Trust work often requires retrospective (date-of-death or alternate valuation date) opinions, a documented workfile, and narratives suitable for fiduciary accounting, IRS/FTB review, or mediation.
Can you complete a Date-of-Death (DOD) or Alternate Valuation Date appraisal? Yes. We routinely deliver DOD and AVD assignments with clearly stated effective dates, comparable selection logic, and support for Forms 706/1041.
Do you handle beneficiary buyouts or fractional interests? Yes. We provide neutral valuations for distribution equalization and partial interests, with plain-English explanations trustees can share with beneficiaries.
What documents should a trustee provide? Trust instrument (effective date), access details, improvement records/permits, prior appraisals (if any), and any instructions from counsel or CPA.
Timeline—how fast can a trust appraisal be completed? Typically a few business days after inspection and data audit. Rush options are available—tell us your filing or mediation deadline.
Condos along Melrose/Fairfax vs. hillside SFRs—how do you account for differences? We document HOA/parking, amenities, view premiums, access/grade, and architectural character; adjustments are supported in the addendum for fiduciary review.
Will the report hold up if there’s a dispute or mediation? Yes. Reports are USPAP-compliant, neutral, and written for non-appraisers. We can clarify methodology and provide testimony if required.
Do you work with attorneys and CPAs directly? Frequently. We coordinate scope, effective date, and deliverables to align with legal and tax requirements for West Hollywood trusts.
