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. Our value conclusion is never tied to the result anyone wants.
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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can you appraise property as of the date of separation?
Yes. A retrospective appraisal values the property as of that past date using market data from that time.
Do you appraise commercial property in divorce?
Yes. Commercial and investment property is our core work, and we appraise related residential property for the same clients.
Who orders the appraisal?
Usually the family law attorney, sometimes the client or a mediator. Call (805) 990-9700 to scope the assignment.
