What Is Gift and Estate Tax Valuation?

A gift and estate tax valuation determines the fair market value (FMV) of assets transferred during your lifetime (through gifting) or after your death (via estate). This appraisal ensures accurate filings for:

• IRS Form 709 (Gift Tax)
• IRS Form 706 (Estate Tax)

We comply with IRS Revenue Ruling 59-60 and USPAP requirements. The fair market value (FMV) of an item is defined as the price that a willing buyer and seller would agree upon in an open market, both possessing all relevant information.

A competent valuation protects you and your beneficiaries from audit risks and IRS penalties.

Why Gift and Estate Tax Valuation is Crucial in 2025

The federal lifetime exemption has reached historic highs:

• Individuals will receive $13.61 million in 2024.
• Married couples received $27.22 million.

Starting January 1, 2026, exemptions are likely to diminish to around $6 million per person, unless Congress intervenes. That is why 2025 is an important year for transferring wealth at today’s greater exemption levels.

Strategic gifting now allows you to “freeze” your asset’s current worth while shifting future appreciation out of your taxable estate, potentially saving millions.

What Causes A Gift and Estate Tax Valuation?

A certified appraisal is required if you are:

• Gifting business shares to family members or staff
• Forming a family limited partnership (FLP)
• Completing an estate plan or will
• Donating business interests to charity
• Developing a business succession strategy

409A vs. Gift & Estate Valuation

Key Advantages of Estate and Gift Tax Valuations

1. Freeze asset values. Transfer now to prevent future appreciation from inflating the estate value.
2. Use FMV-based discounts to minimize tax exposure.
3. Ensure smooth succession by utilizing values to plan intra-family transfers or buyouts.
4. Improve IRS compliance to avoid audit penalties through robust documentation.
5. Implement data-driven initiatives to ensure fair distribution of assets among heirs.

Common Valuation Discounts

• Lack of operational control (DLOC) leads to lower value.
• DLOM (Lack of Marketability): Illiquidity lowers pricing.
• Minority Interest Discount for non-controlling holdings.
• Used Future Interest Discount for Delayed Access Trusts.
• Adjustments for family-owned blocks to account for aggregation effects.
• Consider anticipated post-sale taxes for capital gains exposure.

Planning Tips for 2025 and Beyond

• Set 2025 FMVs before the 2026 exemption drop.
• Use trusts, FLPs, and GRATs to structure tax-effective transfers.
• Plan your valuation early to minimise year-end constraints.
• Maximise benefits by combining yearly exclusions across multiple years.
• Make sure that all gifts come with a certified, IRS-compliant report.
