Divorce

Divorce property settlement appraisals are the most common request from the legal community.

For most simple single-family or common residential apartment building an expensive narrative appraisal is not necessary.  At Zaloom, we will only propose the report format necessary for a particular assignment thus saving our clients time and money.

Probate

Settling an estate can be a stressful process.  At Zaloom, we endeavor to work quickly and with the utmost sensitivity to all the parties involved.

We provide appraisal reports that meet the requirements of the courts and varies agencies.  By establishing  Fair Market Value for the residential properties involved, we give the executor solid facts and figures that can be used when dealing with the IRS or any state agencies.  An appraisal report from Zaloom will demonstrate to the authorities that the numbers used are accurate and substantiated.  Most importantly, we stand behind our appraisals.

Property Tax Appeals

Many times, property owners receive notices in the mail informing them that their property taxes are going up, and sometimes it seems as though the assessment is too high.  More often than not an assessment appeal hearing is required to rectify the situation.  An appraisal done by an independent, third-party appraiser is the best way to prove that the property has been over-valued.  If you have to have a hearing on your assessment appeal, be assured that a Zaloom appraiser will confidently and professionally testify on your behalf.
