Dividing assets?We realize that divorce can be very difficult. There are numerous decisions to worry about, including what happens to the house. There are generally two alternatives when discussing real estate - it can be put on the market and the proceeds divided, 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 common real estate.
