Divorce Appraisal — FAQs

Quick answers for attorneys, mediators, and couples managing divorce valuations in Hollywood and nearby areas.

What is a neutral divorce appraisal?
A USPAP-compliant valuation prepared by an independent appraiser for mediation or court. It’s impartial, fully documented, and built to withstand scrutiny.
Do you handle Date-of-Separation (retrospective) appraisals?
Yes. We value the property as of a specific past date (e.g., separation or filing) and clearly state the effective date, scope, and market conditions for that period.
How fast is turnaround? Are rush options available?
Typical delivery is 3–5 business days after inspection. Rush options (as fast as 2–3 business days) are available depending on complexity and access.
What information do you need before the inspection?
Access details, any prior reports, list of improvements with dates/costs, permits if available, HOA/parking info (for condos), and contacts for involved parties.
Can you appraise homes with unpermitted work or unique features?
Yes. We analyze market impact using local data and disclosures. Unpermitted items or atypical features are documented with appropriate commentary and valuation treatment.
Will the appraisal help with a buyout calculation?
Yes. The appraised value provides the credible basis for equity/buyout math. Your attorney or mediator applies the valuation to the agreed formula for the settlement.
What areas around Hollywood do you cover?
Hollywood, Hollywood Hills, Los Feliz, Hancock Park, Beverly Grove, Fairfax/Melrose, East Hollywood, and greater Los Angeles County. Broader Southern California available on request.
Which property types do you appraise for divorce matters?
Single-family homes, condos, townhomes, and 2–4 unit residential. Ask about special-use or higher-complexity assignments.
How are fees determined?
Flat quotes based on complexity, size, access, effective date (current vs. retrospective), and turn-time. Scope and fee are confirmed upfront—no surprises.
Can you testify or provide declarations?
Yes. We offer written declarations, clarification letters, rebuttals, and expert testimony when needed. Testimony fees are disclosed in advance.
What if one party disagrees with the value?
We review any verified new data, explain methodologies, and consider a limited revision if warranted. If opinions remain apart, we can provide a rebuttal or appear at mediation/court.
What’s the difference between an appraisal and a CMA?
An appraisal is a USPAP-compliant valuation completed by a licensed appraiser using accepted methods and certification. A CMA is an agent’s pricing opinion; courts and mediators typically rely on the appraisal.
