Divorce Appraisals

Divorce Appraisals throughout the Chicago Metropolitan Area.

Navigating divorce is challenging, and when it comes to what is often the largest marital asset, the residence, a credible and strongly supported valuation is paramount for equitable property division. Whether you’re contemplating selling the property, or one party wishes to retain it, our specialized divorce appraisal services will assist in either decision by providing definitive and well-supported valuations.

Key Options for Handling the Marital Residence:

1. Property Sale: When the parties decide to sell the marital real estate, a current valuation by a professionally and geographically competent appraiser can help ensure a fair price in the event of a sale. An appraisal can assist in setting an optimal listing price, minimizing the time on the market and helping ensure the home is not sold for a below-market price.
2. Settlement for Home Retention: If either party wishes to keep the home, a fair settlement is crucial. An appraisal prepared by certified real estate appraiser, mandated by the court, is essential for the Judge to make informed decisions on property division.
