Involved in a divorce? Martino Appraisal Group has the experience you're looking for.We realize that divorce is a painful process. There are numerous decisions to worry about, including what happens to the house. There are generally two options when it comes to the house - it can be put on the market and the proceeds split, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties should order an appraisal of the shared real estate. Contact us if you require an appraisal for the purposes of a divorce or other separation of assets.
