The responsibility falls on both spouses to catalogue your assets before the court can make an order. Both spouses must list down all real estate that they own, along with market value, existing mortgages, insurances, and taxes. It is also important to give a background of the property, such as when it was purchased, how it was purchased, and when the mortgage will be paid (if any); If the real estate properties are furnished with furniture and appliances, it may also be necessary to list them down as well.
