Working on a divorce? Appraisal Services has the expertise you need.Settling a divorce involves many decisions, including "Who gets the house". There are generally two options regarding real estate - it can be sold 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 mutual real estate. Contact us if you require an appraisal related to a divorce or other separation of assets. An appraisal for the purpose of assent division must have a well-established, professional value conclusion that can be supported during a trial. Appraisal Services guarantees an exceptional level of service with courtesy and the highest quality appraisal. Working through the special conditions of a divorce situation is not a problem for us. CA attorneys and accountants depend on our appraisals when calculating what the real property is worth for estates, divorces, or other disputes where it is important. We have an abundance of expertise dealing with all the parties involved and can readily handle your needs. We submit appraisal reports for courts or various agencies that meet or exceed their requirements. For lawyers working with a divorce, your case's research frequently needs an appraisal to determine fair market value for the residential real estate involved. Often the divorce date may not be the same as the date you ordered the appraisal. We're accustomed to the methods and what's needed to develop a retroactive appraisal that has an effective date and Fair Market Value conclusion matching the date of divorce. We work on a reasonable number of divorce appraisals (unfortunately) and we understand that they require prudence delicately. The Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) contains an ethics provision which compels us to keep the highest degree of confidentiality, resulting in the utmost discretion. |
