Dividing assets?We know that divorce is never easy. There are numerous decisions looming, including what happens 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 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 residence.An appraisal for the purpose of asset division requires a well-supported, professional value conclusion that will hold up to a judge. JM Appraisal Services pledges to give you an exceptional level of service with professional courtesy and well-supported conclusions. We understand how to handle the delicate needs of a divorce situation.
