Dividing a home during divorce is emotional.
Dividing the equity shouldn’t be.

There is disagreement about condition, renovations, or market trends
The earlier you get a professional, independent appraisal, the smoother the process tends to be.

Need a Year-End Valuation in Atlanta? Work With Certified Local Appraisers Who Know Your Market.
As we approach the end of the year, many Atlanta homeowners, attorneys, real estate agents, and investors find themselves needing a supportable, certified appraisal — and fast. Whether it’s for legal filings, financial reporting, tax planning, or real estate investment decisions, REI Valuations & Advisory is here to provide accurate, defensible valuations backed by deep expertise in the Atlanta metro market.
We are licensed and certified appraisers, fully compliant with USPAP standards, and we serve the entire Atlanta area — including Fulton, DeKalb, Cobb, Gwinnett, Clayton, Henry, and surrounding counties. If you’re looking for a valuation that holds weight with attorneys, courts, tax professionals, or relocation firms, our team delivers with speed, precision, and professionalism.
What Kind of Year-End Valuations Do We Provide?
In a divorce, equitable division of property often depends on a clear and impartial appraisal. We provide certified divorce valuations that are fully supportable for mediation, court proceedings, and attorney documentation.
We work directly with family law attorneys and both parties involved.
Reports include detailed comp analysis, adjustment grids, and commentary.
We ensure that your home’s fair market value is represented accurately, without bias.
If you’re going through a divorce at year-end, timing is key. Courts and attorneys often need valuations dated on or before Dec. 31 for legal compliance.
2. Probate, Estate, and Date of Death Appraisals
If you’ve recently lost a loved one, we understand that you’re managing both emotional and legal responsibilities. A date of death (DOD) appraisal is often required to establish the property’s value as of the date the decedent passed, whether for:
Estate settlement and probate court filings
IRS reporting and step-up in basis
Heir distribution and asset documentation
Our team specializes in retrospective valuations, using historical sales data to determine accurate value as of the specific date required. We also assist CPAs, financial advisors, and estate attorneys with certified reports suitable for federal and state use.
Filing for bankruptcy involves full disclosure of assets — and that includes your real property. We offer supportable appraisals for Chapter 7, Chapter 11, and Chapter 13 filings, working directly with clients or attorneys to meet court submission deadlines.
Reports meet trustee and court documentation standards
Neutral, third-party values (not inflated by emotion or assumptions)
Fast turnaround to meet filing schedules
4. Employment & Relocation Appraisals
Are you relocating for a job or transferring with a company before year-end? A relocation appraisal can help establish the fair market value of your home for:
Employee relocation programs
Internal buyout offers
Pre-sale planning and budgeting
We understand the urgency these moves require, especially before Q4 closes out. Our team delivers ERC 2010-compliant relocation reports upon request, in addition to standard summary format reports.
5. Investor-Focused: Flip, BRRRR, and Rental Property Valuations
Investors: if you’re preparing for year-end capital events, balance sheet updates, or 1031 exchanges, you need supportable valuations for your rental or flip portfolio. We provide:
Whether you’re locking in year-end profits, planning a refinance, or preparing for tax season, our investor-focused valuations help you make confident decisions.
6. Home Measurement Services (ANSI-Compliant)
In 2023 and beyond, accurate home measurements have never been more important. We offer home measurement reports that comply with ANSI Z765-2021 standards, which are now required by most lenders and are increasingly used in FSBO and agent-listing scenarios.
Ideal for listing agents, FSBO sellers, or homeowners disputing square footage
Professional sketches with gross living area clearly delineated
Can be bundled with a valuation if needed
7. Forensic & Retrospective Appraisals
Need to know what the value was on a prior date? Whether it’s for legal, tax, or dispute resolution purposes, we provide retrospective appraisals that hold up under scrutiny.
Common uses include:
IRS step-up basis
Tax appeals
Legal disputes
Portfolio reviews
We reconstruct market conditions, comparable sales, and valuation methodology as of the requested effective date.
