Divorce Whether a divorce from a short or long term marriage, it is a difficult and tiresome procedure. Depending on what decisions are made, some may list a house for sale and split the proceeds or buy out the other spouse. It is imperative that either you or your spouse order an appraisal from a certified residential real estate appraiser to approximate the fair market value of your home. When proceeding through asset division, an appraisal should include supported evidence that is defensible in court.   Often times a divorce date can be different than the inspection date of the appraisal. This requires a retrospective appraisal. This simply is an appraisal date that corresponds to a certain time in history (aligned to a divorce date).

Working with many lenders in several markets, we've gained the experience and the competence to appraise properties in a variety of locations. Whether you are buying or selling your home, an appraiser will be traditionally ordered by your bank or lender. The appraisal is a professional unbiased market value opinion of the property that is required for financing. These are requirements by lender to assure that the property is worth the value of the loan. The lender does not want to over finance a property so an appraiser is hired to create an appraisal.
