Everyone can benefit from a third-party appraisal
There are generally two alternatives when discussing the house - it can be put on the market and the proceeds divvied up, or one party can "buy out" the other. In either case, one or both parties would find it in their best interest to order an appraisal of the shared real estate. Whether you are compelled by a court order to sell your home or are looking to divide equity, Lancaster Appraisal Group will provide you with an objective, third party appraisal that will be beneficial for everyone involved. Attorneys and accountants have long relied on our expertise when working divorce cases. When ascertaining real property values for divorces or other disputes dependent on a value opinion, we understand the needs of all parties involved and provide appraisal documents that fulfill the requirements of the courts and various agencies.

Divorce requires consideration, discretion, and professionalism
When the reason for an appraisal is a divorce settlement, it needs a well-supported, authoritative appraisal document that is defensible during a trial. Lancaster Appraisal Group guarantees the very best in service with professional courtesy and top notch analysis. Taking into account the particular needs of a divorce situation is somewhat matter-of-fact for us.

A lot of the time the divorce date differs from the date you ordered the appraisal. We're experienced with the processes and what it means to develop a retrospective appraisal with an effective date and Market Value conclusion corresponding to the date of divorce. We work on many divorce appraisals (unfortunately) and we understand that they need to be handled prudently. The ethics provision within the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP) means the highest amount of confidentiality, resulting in the utmost discretion.
