Real Estate Appraisal for your Divorce
A divorce is never – or very rarely – a happy thing. The emotions that went into deciding to take this life-changing step can be overwhelming. And it can often seem that once you have made that momentous decision the procedures and details that follow are crushing. You will need help, and we can offer some.
If you own your own home, what to do with it will undoubtedly be at the top of your list. Are you keeping it or is your spouse? Are you selling it? Is one of you going to buy the other out? When you walk around it and think about when you bought it and decorated it and made the improvements and put up the holiday decorations and entertained and maybe raised your children and played with your pets do you think the memories are going to sink you? This is where I can help. I’m not a marriage counselor or a therapist but I do know Portland area real estate and I’m going to do my best to show and explain to you that a house is real property and has a real market value, and we’re going to sit down and treat the house just that way. We are only going to look at this asset in terms of its monetary value, and that will allow you to see it dispassionately.
I will do a full and professional appraisal that you and your spouse, or you and your attorneys will be able to factor into your decision making. If you can look at the details in black and white it might help to take the raw emotions out of this part of your negotiations. It will also give you the appraisal that you need should you decide to put the house on the market. You and your real estate agent will knowledgeably list the house at a price that it deserves.
