Splitting up assets?We realize that divorce is a painful process. There are countless choices to worry about, including what to do with the shared residence. There are generally two choices when discussing common 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 order an appraisal of the joint real estate.
