There are multiple ways to do this. The best way would be to pay for an appraisal. That could cost you several hundred dollars though. You could check the county appraisal district, but these prices are not always acurate. Search for "[your county] county appraisal district" and then search for the address of the property.

The second best way to figure out the value, other than an appraisal is to run comps. These are comparissons of other properties for sale and sold in the area of your home. Generally up to 1/2 mile out and within the past 6 months. If you do the search based on a specific area or subdivision you will have better luck with more accurate numbers.

If coexecutor-beneficiary of taxable Estate wants to purchase the family home at appraised value which is significantly lower than market how do you determine fair distribution without wasting to tax?

The appraised value is supposed to arrive at fair market value. Remember that property owned by a decedent gets a new basis, which is equal to the value as of the date of death. When a buyer purchases the property for its value, there is no capital gain or loss. If the buyer pays less than fair market value, then you can simply allocate the difference between FMV and the purchase price to the buyer's share of the estate.


If you purchase a home from a taxable estate with another co-executor at appraised value rather than market to reduce additional estate tax how do you determine the third co-executor's fair portion?

The house must be included at fair market value as of the date of death regardless of the amount actually paid for the house. the only exception to this rule, would be if the executor elects the alternate valuation date, which would be the fair market value at the earlier of 6 months after date of death or the date ther property was sold.
