When getting a divorce, I can provide a true value of the shared real estate asset.
Divorce is never easy. There are countless decisions looming, including what happens to the house. There are generally two choices when discussing common real estate - it can be put up for sale and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other.
