Splitting up marital assets?We understand that divorce can be very difficult. There are countless choices to worry about, including what happens to the shared residence. There are generally two options when discussing common real estate - it can be sold and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties should get an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal dealing with a divorce or other allocation of assets. When the purpose of an appraisal is a couple splitting up, it should include a well-supported, professional document that can be supported to a judge.
