Dividing property during a divorce requires more than emotional readiness—it demands accurate financial representation. In an elite enclave like Holmby Hills, where estates often exceed $10 million and uniqueness is the norm, a certified divorce appraisal is absolutely essential. Whether you’re facing litigation, pursuing mediation, or structuring a private settlement, a professional, neutral appraisal ensures fair asset division and compliance with California law.
At Pacific Home Appraisers, we specialize in Divorce Appraisal Services in Holmby Hills, offering discreet, court-ready reports trusted by attorneys, mediators, and high-net-worth clients. With over 5,000 certified appraisals completed since 2005, our expertise lies in handling complex, high-value properties with integrity, precision, and complete confidentiality.
California’s community property laws require equitable distribution of all marital assets, including luxury real estate. In Holmby Hills, where no two estates are alike and where features like gated access, architectural pedigree, acreage, and panoramic views all impact value, an accurate, certified appraisal is crucial.
Our divorce appraisals help you:
Establish fair market value or retrospective value for your estate
Support buyout negotiations and equitable settlements
Submit defensible reports for court filings and mediation
Avoid disputes with an objective, third-party opinion
Comply fully with California Family Law standards
In addition to divorce valuations, Pacific Home Appraisers offers a full range of luxury real estate appraisal services in Holmby Hills, including:
Required for probate and IRS estate filings, these valuations determine property value at the time of the decedent’s passing.

Certified and court-formatted reports used for estate distribution and legal administration of inherited assets.
We offer expert support in real estate disputes involving high-value properties, including deposition analysis and court appearances.
