Dividing marital assets?We understand that divorce is never easy. There are many choices to worry about, including what's going to happen to the shared residence. There are generally two options when it comes to the house - it can be put on the market and the proceeds divided, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to get an appraisal of the mutual real estate. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal for the purposes of a divorce or other allocation of assets. When the reason for an appraisal is a couple splitting up, it requires a well-established, expert value conclusion that is defensible to a judge. When you order an appraisal from Certified Appraisers, you are assured the best in service with professional courtesy and well-supported conclusions.
