Dividing assets?We understand that divorce is a painful process. There are many decisions looming, including the status of the shared residence. There are generally two alternatives regarding the shared residence - it can be put up for sale 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 order an appraisal of the residence.
