Estate & Residential Appraisal Fees

Starting fees for estate, trust, and other non-lender residential appraisal assignments are outlined below. Final fees are determined by scope, complexity, and research requirements.

Estate & Retrospective Appraisals
Appraisals prepared for estate, trust, or date-of-death purposes often require expanded research, historical market analysis, and additional documentation. Fees for these assignments are quoted based on scope and often exceed those of standard current-market appraisals.

The fees will vary based on the property size, scope of work, and location. For example, a full inspection will cost more than an exterior-only inspection, and a 5,000-square-foot house will cost more than a 1,000-square-foot house.
