Estate Appraisals

Settling an estate often requires more than simply determining what
property is worth today. An accurate appraisal establishes the value of
real property as of the required effective date, most commonly the date
of death, and provides the documentation needed for estate
administration, tax reporting, probate, trusts, and equitable
distribution among heirs.

Hollenback Appraisal provides objective, impartial estate appraisal
services throughout Lee County, including Fort Myers, Cape Coral, North
Fort Myers, Fort Myers Beach, Sanibel, Captiva, and Pine Island. Every

With more than 40 years of appraisal experience, George Hollenback has
valued virtually all types of real property, including residential,
commercial, mixed-use, income-producing, and vacant land. As a
State-Certified General Appraiser (RZ2916), he has the experience to
handle assignments ranging from a single-family residence to complex
real property interests.

Estate appraisals are commonly required for:

– Date-of-death valuations
– Probate proceedings
– Trust administration
– Estate tax reporting
– Establishing tax basis for inherited property
– Equitable distribution among heirs
– Attorney, accountant, and personal representative support

An estate appraisal should be more than an opinion of value. It should
be a well-supported report that can withstand review and provide
confidence to families, attorneys, accountants, fiduciaries, and, when
necessary, the Internal Revenue Service or the courts.

Hollenback Appraisal understands that estate assignments are often
completed during difficult times for families. Every client is treated
with professionalism, respect, and personal attention. Reports are
prepared carefully, delivered promptly, and tailored to the specific
purpose of the assignment.
