Splitting up assets?We know that divorce is a painful process. There are countless choices that have to be resolved, including the status of the home. There are generally two options regarding the house - 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 mutual real estate.
