Capital gains appraisal
A defensible value for a past date.
Retrospective opinions of value for a change in use, an inheritance, or a deemed disposition — to support your capital-gains reporting.
Capital-gains calculations often hinge on what a property was worth at a specific past date. We prepare a retrospective opinion of value for that date, supported by sales evidence from the relevant period.
