Splitting up assets?We realize that divorce is a painful process. There are numerous choices to worry about, including what to do with the shared residence. There are generally two choices when it comes to real estate - it can be put on the market and the proceeds split, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would find it in their best interest to commission an appraisal of the common real estate. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal for the purposes of a divorce or other division of assets. An appraisal for divorce purposes requires a well-supported, authoritative report that will hold up during a trial. When you order an appraisal from Mark A.
