Manhattan probate often requires a certified valuation of co-ops, condos, and townhouses for Surrogate's Court inventory, accounting, and distribution. Building-level analysis matters — proprietary leases, common charges, and comparable sales that generic estimates miss.

Dave Lister, SRA (NY license 45000049662), provides attorney- and executor-direct probate appraisals as a New York Court-Approved Certified Residential Appraiser. Work is private-party focused — not AMC mortgage factory assignments — with USPAP-compliant, Surrogate's Court–ready documentation.

When Manhattan Probate Needs an Appraisal
