Dividing marital assets?We know that divorce is a painful process. There are countless decisions that have to be settled, including what to do with the shared residence. There are generally two alternatives when it comes to real estate - it can be put on the market and the proceeds divvied up, 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 residence.
