Dividing marital assets?We know that divorce is a painful process. There are numerous decisions looming, including what to do with the house. There are generally two choices when it comes to the house - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to order an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal related to a divorce or other separation of assets. When the purpose of an appraisal is the division of assets, it requires a well-supported, professional report that is defensible during a trial. Robin Kristopher Eckman pledges to give you an exceptional level of service with professional courtesy and the highest quality appraisal. We also know how to handle the delicate needs of a divorce situation. Attorneys in MD and accountants rely on our opinions when ascertaining what the real property is worth for estates, divorces, or other disputes requiring a value opinion. We have an abundance of expertise working with everyone involved and are ready to assist with your needs. We provide appraisal reports that fulfill the requirements of the courts and various agencies. As a legal professional representing a client in a divorce, your case's evidence regularly requires an appraisal to determine fair market value for the residential real estate involved. Many times the divorce date differs from the date you requested the appraisal. We're comfortable with the procedures and what is imperative to complete a retroactive appraisal that has an effective date and Fair Market Value opinion corresponding to the date of divorce. For each divorce appraisal we perform we remain conscious of the fact that they need to be handled delicately. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) compels us to keep the highest degree of confidentiality, resulting in the utmost discretion. |
