The parties, who are family members, were in an acrimonious dispute regarding the sale of a mutually-owned home and could not agree on a real estate agent.
The applicant opposed severing the lot, while the property had significant potential for severance to maximize value.
The court reviewed valuation reports from two proposed agents and an appraiser.
The court selected the agent who recognized the property's potential for severance, finding this approach would best achieve the highest fair market value.
The court ordered the property to be listed with that agent and referred remaining issues to the Master.
