Splitting up assets?We understand that divorce is a painful process. There are countless choices that have to be resolved, including the status of the house. There are generally two options when it comes to real estate - it can be put on the market and the proceeds split, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to commission an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal related to a divorce or other division of assets. A divorce appraisal must have a well-established, authoritative report that can be supported to a judge. When you order an appraisal from IMA Appraisal Services, you are assured the best in service with professional courtesy and the highest quality appraisal.
