What is a Date-of-Death Valuation?

A date-of-death valuation is a retrospective estimate of a property's fair market value as of the specific date the owner passed away — not what it's worth today. It's prepared using comparable sales data from that time period to establish what a willing buyer would have paid a willing seller on that date.

This type of report is used by probate courts, CPAs, estate attorneys, and heirs to establish a stepped-up cost basis for the inherited property. The stepped-up basis can significantly reduce — or in many cases eliminate — capital gains taxes when the property is eventually sold.

It's one of the most important documents in the estate settlement process, and one of the most commonly overlooked. Getting it right matters.
