A real estate appraisal is a professional appraiser's opinion of market value of the property in question at a specified date in time - whether it be in the past (retrospective) or the present. The appraiser serves the important role of providing an objective, impartial, and unbiased opinion about the value of the property.
The preparation of an appraisal involves research into appropriate market areas, the assembly and analysis of information pertinent to a property and the knowledge, experience, and professional judgment of the appraiser. We specialize in residential real estate appraisals for the following property types: single-family homes, condominiums, multi-family homes, twin homes, manufactured homes, modular homes and vacant land.

Divorce
Report
Divorce is a very long and painful process in which there are many decisions to be made including what to do with the marital home. Some couples decide to sell the home and split the profits while others may determine that the best course of action is for one spouse to stay while another is paid a portion of the property's value and leaves.

Report
A trust is a special fiduciary arrangement that allows a third party, known as a "trustee, " to hold assets on behalf of a beneficiary. Trusts are flexible and can be arranged in a variety of ways to specify exactly how and when the assets will pass to the beneficiary. Traditionally, a trust is used for minimizing estate taxes.
