We are often retained jointly by both parties' attorneys, or by one side, and our reports are written to be read closely by the other side and the court.
We handle current and retrospective dates (the complaint or separation date), inspections where only one spouse is home, and properties with disputed improvements. Every report is prepared under USPAP by a New Jersey certified appraiser, and we provide expert testimony if the case goes to trial.
What we handle
- Joint (neutral) or one-sided assignments
- Current or retrospective effective dates
- Single-family, condo, multi-family, land and commercial property
- Both attorneys kept informed before and after the inspection
- Fees: most residential appraisals run $600–$900; commercial from $1,750
