Splitting up assets?Settling a divorce involves many decisions, including "Who gets the house". There are generally two alternatives when it comes to common real estate - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties should commission an appraisal of the mutual real estate. Contact us if you require an appraisal related to a divorce or other separation of assets.
