Dividing assets ?

 

We understand that divorce can be very difficult. There are numrous decisions to worry about, including what to do with the house. There are generally two alternatives regarding real estate - 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 common real estate.

An appraisal for divorce purposes needs a well-established, expert appraisal document that is defensible during a trial. When you order an appraisal from TITAN APPRAISAL GROUP, you are assured the best in service with courtesy and top notch analysis. Working through the special conditions of a divorce situation is familiar territory for us.

For lawyers dealing with a divorce, your case's material facts customarily require an appraisal to establish market value for the residential real estate involved.

We are familiar with the methods and what it takes to perform a retrospective appraisal that has an effective date and Market Value estimate corresponding to the date of divorce.
