Divorce Appraisal

What Is a Divorce Appraisal?

Divorces often require the division of marital assets, and the family home is typically one of the most significant.

A professional, independent real estate appraisal provides a neutral, well-supported opinion of market value, helping both parties and their legal representatives make informed decisions.

As a Certified Residential Appraiser, I offer clear, impartial valuations that are USPAP-compliant and specifically tailored for family law purposes.

Why You May Need a Divorce Appraisal

Determine the fair market value as of the date of separation or the current date
Support equitable property division during mediation or court proceedings
Provide documentation for attorneys, mediators, or courts
Help avoid future disputes over real estate value

What You Can Expect

Discreet, professional service with respect for your privacy
Independent, third-party valuation — I work for neither side
Fast turnaround and responsive communication
A detailed report suitable for court, if needed

Please note: While most divorce appraisals do not require court testimony, I do not currently offer in-court testimony services. However, my report may still be submitted by your attorney or another party involved in your case.
