Appraise inherited art, antiques, and probate contents from photos
If you need a written value for art, antiques, jewelry, or household contents in an estate, start here. This is not Zillow and not a roof or building appraisal.
House value estimators, mortgage AVMs, and real-estate appraisers for the building itself.
Default: Tax & Estate $399. CPA, donation, Form 706, or estate-tax contents: $399 case review. One inherited object for records or family division is $59. Insurer asked: $99. Whole-house contents: quote. See /services for the full table.
Tax and estate files start at $399 as case review — the default on this page. One signed object report is $59. Insurance replacement value is $99. Multi-item estates are quoted. This is personal property only, not a house-value estimate.
Who this is for. Executors, heirs, and attorneys who need a signed PDF for personal-property contents. Photograph rooms, then the objects that may need their own reports.
Executor contents and household personal property. This page is for objects inside the house: art, antiques, jewelry, furniture, silver, and household contents. It is not a home-value estimate and not a building appraisal.
Form 706 and estate-tax files. If a CPA, attorney, or tax adviser asked for a personal-property appraisal to support an estate-tax or Form 706 file, use the $399 case-review lane. That is not an automatic federal qualified appraisal and not tax advice.
Family division and downsizing. One inherited object for records or family division is $59. Downsizing a room or house of contents is a quote. Insurance replacement value is a different job ($99 after you ask the carrier).
What to photograph in the house. Leave objects in place. Capture overall room context, then marks, damage, labels, and completeness. Do not clean or refinish first.
Questions
Do you appraise real estate or the house?
No. Appraisily appraises personal-property contents: art, antiques, jewelry, furniture, and household objects. We do not rank Zillow or other home-value tools, and a free “property appraisal” is a lender or real-estate question. Use a real-estate appraiser for the building.
Can you appraise estate contents from photos?
Often yes for individual objects with clear photos. Large or high-stakes inventories may need a quoted special project. The report states limits. The receiving party is not guaranteed to accept a remote PDF.
How much does an estate appraisal cost here?
On this page the default is $399 case review for CPA, donation, Form 706, or estate-tax files. One signed object report is $59. Insurance replacement value is $99. Multi-item estates are quoted. There is no published rush fee.
Can Instant Screener value a whole estate?
No. Instant Screener is a free, unsigned first look for one object at a time. A whole house or many objects needs a special-projects quote.
How do probate, family division, insurance, and donation differ here?
On this page the default is $399 case review for CPA, donation, Form 706, or estate-tax files. One inherited object for records or division is $59. Insurer asked for replacement value: $99 after you ask the carrier. Whole-house contents: quote.
Are online appraisals accurate?
This query also often means houses: we value objects, not buildings. For personal property, a photo-based signed report can be useful when marks, construction, condition, and completeness are visible. Receiving-party acceptance is not guaranteed.
