During a divorce, you and your spouse must divide your assets, which may include single-family homes and investment property. Even if you think you know what your home is worth, a judge probably requires you to get a professional real estate appraisal.

Your thoughts about what your home is worth it’s not applicable in court. A judge will need an accurate appraisal of your home in order to divide the property in case of divorce.

Additionally, the listing price of a home can be a bone of contention for many divorced couples. A spouse who wants to buy the other can claim that the house is worth much less than it actually is, while the other spouse may argue that it is worth more. A professional appraiser can give your home a proper valuation and help you avoid potential disputes about its actual value.

A real estate appraiser can be a valuable resource (services) in your divorce. Knowing what your home is worth can help you reach a fair settlement for the property in arbitration, and if settlement discussions fail, an appraiser’s report can support your position in court.
