Dividing assets?Settling a divorce involves many decisions, including "Who gets the house". There are generally two alternatives when discussing common real estate - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds split, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would find it in their best interest to get an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if you require an appraisal for the purposes of a divorce or other allocation of assets. An appraisal for divorce purposes should include a well-established, expert value conclusion that is defensible during a trial. Briggs Appraisal Services pledges to give you an exceptional level of service with professional courtesy and top notch analysis. Taking into account the particular challenges of a divorce situation is somewhat matter-of-fact for us.

We have a great deal of expertise dealing with all the parties involved and We understand their needs and are used to dealing with all parties involved. We create appraisal reports for courts or various agencies that meet or exceed their requirements. For lawyers handling a divorce, your case's evidence regularly needs an appraisal to ascertain fair market value for the residential real estate involved. Many times the divorce date may not be the same as the date you requested the appraisal. We're experienced with the procedures and all that it entails to do a retroactive appraisal that has an effective date and Fair Market Value opinion matching the date of divorce. We work on a reasonable number of divorce appraisals (unfortunately) and we understand that they need to be handled with total professionalism.
