Home value as of a past date (separation date)

Sometimes the value that matters isn't today's. An attorney or the court may want the home's value as of the date you separated, filed, or another specific date.

How it works

Sam values the home as of the date you give him, using sales from around that time and the home's condition back then. Photos, listings or receipts for updates made since then are helpful.

Who picks the date?

Your attorney, mediator or the court. Sam just needs the exact date in your order notes.

Cost

Same pricing: $500 for most homes, $600 over 5,000 sq ft, +$100 rush.
