Preference fairness and dollar value are different
A keepsake may have little resale value but high emotional value. A piece of furniture may have more dollar value but matter less to a particular heir.
Estate Divvy's fair-division calculation is driven by submitted preference scores. Estimated dollar values are separate context.
Use estimated values carefully
Estimated values entered by family members are not appraisals. They can help the group understand whether one proposed bundle appears to contain much more known dollar value than another.
Discuss voluntary equalization after results
The final results page summarizes known estimated value by recipient. If the family wants to equalize dollar value, those differences can guide a separate voluntary cash adjustment.
When to get outside help
For valuable jewelry, art, vehicles, collectibles, antiques, or disputed assets, consider an appraiser, attorney, executor, mediator, or tax professional.
