Divorce Appraisals in Saint Louis City County by Holmes Appraisal Services

We know that divorce is never easy. There are many choices to worry about, including what to do with the shared residence. 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.

As a legal professional representing a client in a divorce, your case's research frequently necessitates an appraisal to establish fair market value for the residential real estate involved. Often the divorce date may not be the same as the date you ordered the appraisal. We're versed in the processes and what's needed to complete a retroactive appraisal that has an effective date and Fair Market Value opinion corresponding to the date of divorce.
