Estate and Trust Appraisals with Clarity and Care  

Professional Residential Valuations for Probate, Inheritance, and Estate Planning

When estate matters arise—whether from the passing of a loved one, the division of inherited property, or the need to establish fair market value for legal purposes—Skyline Appraisal Services provides clear, defensible appraisals backed by over 20 years of experience and more than 10,000 reports completed.

Serving Denver, Arapahoe, and Adams Counties, we specialize in delivering well-supported residential valuations that hold up in legal, tax, and financial proceedings. Our reports are USPAP-compliant and tailored to meet the needs of estate attorneys, executors, financial advisors, and family members navigating a complex process.

Appraisals That Support Legal and Financial Requirements

Estate and trust appraisals often require a retrospective value—typically as of the date of death—to comply with IRS and court documentation requirements. These assignments demand more than a standard market estimate. They call for precision, discretion, and a deep understanding of the local housing market.

Skyline Appraisal Services works closely with clients to deliver timely, narrative-style appraisal reports that can be submitted to probate court, used for estate tax filing, or relied upon for equitable property division among heirs or trustees. Each report is crafted with care to ensure clarity, accuracy, and legal sufficiency.

Local Insight Across Every Neighborhood

Our work is grounded in nearly three decades of familiarity with the Denver metro area. From the urban enclaves of Capitol Hill and Park Hill to the evolving suburban markets of Aurora, Centennial, Thornton, and Brighton, we understand how micro-market factors affect residential property values. That insight becomes especially important in estate assignments where location, condition, and historical market trends must be accurately interpreted.

Whether the property is a modest family home or a higher-value asset held in trust, our appraisal process reflects the nuances of the local market and the context in which the valuation is needed.

Responsive, Respectful, and Timely Service

Estate and trust matters are often time-sensitive. Delays can create unnecessary stress or legal complications. At Skyline Appraisal Services, we prioritize communication and scheduling to make the process as smooth as possible. From initial consultation to final report delivery, clients receive direct access to a certified residential appraiser who is responsive, knowledgeable, and easy to work with.

We understand the emotional and logistical challenges that often accompany these appraisals and approach each assignment with professionalism and care.
