Independent, not an advocate

In a divorce, both sides read the appraisal closely. Our job is an independent, well-supported opinion of value, never a number picked to help one side. Fees are never tied to the appraised value.

When a business owns real estate, or the marital estate includes a building or a portfolio, we appraise the real property and lay out the reasoning in plain view.

Current value and date of separation

Many cases need two values: today's value and the value as of the date of separation. We can provide both, using the market data from each date.
