Divorce Appraisals (Division of Marital Assets) We know that divorce can be very difficult. There are numerous decisions that have to be settled, including what to do with the house. There are generally two choices when discussing real estate - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divided, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to get an appraisal of the residence.
