Splitting up assets?We know that divorce is never easy. There are countless decisions to worry about, including what's going to happen to the house. There are generally two options when discussing the shared residence - 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 find it in their best interest to commission an appraisal of the common real estate.
