How can one determine the fair market value of a home at the time of death?

To determine the fair market value of a home at the time of death, an appraisal by a professional appraiser or a real estate agent can be conducted. This appraisal takes into account factors such as the home's condition, location, size, and recent sales of similar properties in the area. The appraisal report can be used to establish the home's value for estate tax purposes or for distribution among heirs.
