Many estates in Richmond involve estate sales or liquidation of personal property. In many cases, however, a professional appraisal is required before items can be sold, donated, divided, or reported for tax purposes. Prestige Estate Services no longer conducts estate sales in Richmond, Virginia. Our Richmond office now focuses exclusively on professional personal property appraisal services prepared in accordance with USPAP standards and IRS qualified appraisal guidelines.

Over the past several years, demand in the Richmond market has increasingly centered on estate tax reporting, trust administration documentation, equitable distribution matters, charitable contribution appraisals, and insurance valuation services. As a result, our Richmond office now specializes exclusively in personal property appraisal services in Richmond, VA. Our reports are prepared in accordance with USPAP standards and structured to meet IRS qualified appraisal guidelines where applicable.

If you are settling an estate in Richmond and were originally searching for an estate sale company, you may first require a professional valuation before any liquidation or distribution occurs. Executors, trustees, attorneys, and financial advisors frequently engage a Richmond personal property appraiser to establish documented Fair Market Value for estate administration, probate reporting, charitable planning, or equitable division. Establishing value prior to sale or distribution can provide clarity, reduce conflict, and support compliance with fiduciary obligations.

Our Richmond appraisal services include:

• Estate tax appraisals in Richmond, VA for date-of-death and trust reporting
• Divorce and equitable distribution appraisals for asset division proceedings
• Charitable donation appraisals for non-cash contribution substantiation
• Insurance appraisals and replacement cost valuations
• Appraisal review services for litigation and dispute matters
