If property settlement during separation or divorce is amicable, a valuation – whilst not required for court purposes – can still assist with settlement. If there is dispute over the property value then it is likely that an independent value will be required to reach a successful property settlement.
In our experience having a clear equitable value can often save both parties a lot of time, money and angst.
These valuations are also undertaken to administer deceased estates and during transfer of property within a family.
