Dividing marital assets?Divorce settlements involve many decisions, including "Who gets the house". There are generally two choices when discussing the shared residence - it can be put up for sale 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 mutual real estate. Contact us if you require an appraisal dealing with a divorce or other division of assets. When the reason for an appraisal is a couple splitting up, it must have a well-supported, professional report that will hold up during a trial. When you order an appraisal from JB Appraisals, you are assured the best in service with courtesy and the highest quality appraisal.
