Splitting up assets?We realize that divorce is a painful process. There are numerous choices that have to be resolved, including the status of the house. There are generally two choices when discussing common real estate - it can be sold and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties should commission an appraisal of the residence. Contact us if your needs include an appraisal dealing with a divorce or other allocation of assets. When the purpose of an appraisal is a divorce settlement, it requires a well-established, expert document that will hold up during a trial. Greg Stone Appraisal Company pledges to give you the very best in service with professional courtesy and the highest quality appraisal. Taking into account the special conditions of a divorce situation is somewhat matter-of-fact for us.

We have a lot of expertise dealing with all the parties involved and We understand their needs and are used to dealing with all parties involved.
