Fair Market Value Appraisals 101
Establishing a value prior to an estate sale
Fair Market Value Appraisals are non-certified. To illustrate, family members sometimes need or want a value of a homes contents. That is a fair market value appraisal, specifically. However, it is not for insurance or replacement value, as you would think. A certified appraisal is what fills that need.
Fair Market Appraisals help alleviate problems in some situations
Family members sometimes want to know the value of the items each family member chooses to keep.
Accordingly, a fair market appraisal can determine that. In brief, a fair market value appraisal can balance the scales and alleviate conflicts that sometimes family members can enter into. Family dynamics vary and it is wise to offer a Fair Market Value Appraisal if it seems necessary.

Support our Homeless Youth
I vaguely remember a phrase Marlo Thomas used once in a St. Jude’s commercial. It went something like this.
“If you have healthy kids, help others who don’t”.
Along those same lines, if your kids have not experienced homelessness, help others who have. Our homeless youth will be facing many “forks in the road” in the future. Small but significant gestures of kindness, love, support, financial gifts, school supplies, personal care items help. Find more items listed on their website that will make their lives easier. Let’s not forget our homeless youth. Someday, when they are adults, they will look back and remember what you did for them.
