Splitting up marital assets?We realize that divorce can be very difficult. There are countless decisions looming, including the fate of the home. There are generally two alternatives when it comes to real estate - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divided, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties should order an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if you require an appraisal related to a divorce or other allocation of assets. A divorce appraisal must have a well-supported, authoritative document that can be supported in court.
