Dividing marital assets?We understand that divorce is a painful process. There are many decisions that have to be settled, including the status of the shared residence. There are generally two choices when it comes to the shared residence - 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 would be wise to get an appraisal of the residence.When the intended use of an appraisal is the division of assets, it must have a well-supported, professional appraisal document that can be supported to a judge.
