Dividing marital assets?We realize that divorce can be very difficult. There are many choices to worry about, including the fate of the shared residence. There are generally two options when discussing real estate - 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 find it in their best interest to order an appraisal of the residence.
