There are generally two options regarding the shared residence - it can be put on the market and the proceeds divided, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would be wise to order an appraisal of the residence.When the intended use of an appraisal is the division of assets, it needs a well-supported, expert appraisal document that will hold up in court.
