Surrogate's Court and estate administration appraisals — Court Approved Appraiser in New York, attorney-ordered private work, USPAP reports typically in 5–10 business days.
When real property is part of a New York estate, counsel and fiduciaries need a clear, defensible valuation for inventory, accounting, and distribution. Madison & Park Appraisal is a Court Approved Appraiser in New York. We prepare USPAP-compliant residential appraisals that estate attorneys use for Surrogate's Court matters across Westchester County and Manhattan.
Most assignments are completed within 5–10 business days. We work on attorney-ordered private engagements — coordinated directly with estate counsel, executors, and administrators.
Surrogate's Court inventory: A certified opinion of value documents real estate holdings for estate filings and accounting.
Date of death alignment: Probate appraisals are typically effective as of the date of death. See our dedicated date of death appraisal page for IRS Form 706 and stepped-up basis detail.
Attorney-ready delivery: Reports include the certifications, assumptions, and market support counsel expect for administration and, when needed, contested matters.

We appraise single-family homes, co-ops, condos, and townhouses throughout Westchester County and Manhattan. Borough-specific co-op and condo experience is outlined on our Manhattan real estate appraiser page.
For Connecticut probate matters (including Greenwich), we are licensed in CT. Connecticut does not maintain a court-appointed appraiser list; attorneys and fiduciaries retain licensed appraisers for USPAP retrospective reports. Details: Greenwich CT real estate appraiser.
We understand filing calendars and IRS timelines. Contact us with the property address, date of death (or other effective date), and counsel contact — we will confirm scope, fee, and delivery.
