Splitting up assets?We realize that divorce is a painful process. There are countless decisions looming, including what to do with the home. There are generally two choices when discussing the shared residence - 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 commission an appraisal of the shared real estate. Contact us if you require an appraisal for the purposes of a divorce or other division of assets.
