Appraisal Services for Homeowners and Private Clients
Not every appraisal is tied to a mortgage. Apollo Values completes private-use residential appraisals for homeowners and private clients who need an independent, supportable opinion of value for purposes outside a lending transaction.
Private appraisals follow the same USPAP standards as lender work and are delivered directly to the client who commissioned them. No lender. No AMC. No waiting on someone else's timeline.

Before your home goes on the market, know what the data actually supports. A pre-listing appraisal gives you an independent, data-supported opinion of value before a listing price is set.
A pre-listing appraisal does not guarantee a specific outcome on the purchase appraisal. It eliminates surprises, gives your listing agent a defensible starting point, and puts you in a stronger negotiating position if a value dispute arises later.

Apollo Values completes date-of-death appraisals, retrospective value opinions, and current market value appraisals for estate settlement, probate, and trust administration in Hillsborough and Manatee Counties.
Reports are completed under USPAP standards and delivered in a format suitable for presentation to attorneys, accountants, and court or administrative proceedings. Retrospective assignments require additional research into historical market conditions and are scoped and priced accordingly. Contact us with the date of death or valuation date and property details to discuss the assignment.

When real property is part of a divorce settlement, both parties need an independent, credible opinion of value they can rely on in negotiation or litigation. Apollo Values completes residential appraisals for divorce and equitable distribution proceedings in Hillsborough and Manatee Counties.
Reports are delivered directly to the commissioning party or their attorney. If both parties require separate independent appraisals, each is a separate engagement. Contact us with the effective date required and property details.
-
If your home has appreciated since you purchased it, you may be eligible to request removal of private mortgage insurance based on an updated appraisal demonstrating sufficient equity. Apollo Values completes appraisals for PMI removal requests in Hillsborough and Manatee Counties.
Important: PMI removal appraisals must be ordered through your loan servicer, not directly by the homeowner. Contact your lender first to confirm their specific requirements and approved appraiser list before reaching out to us.

If you are considering a sale, a major renovation, a refinance, or a significant financial decision tied to your property's value, an independent appraisal gives you a data-supported starting point that no automated valuation can match.
Private market analysis appraisals are scoped and delivered based on your specific question and timeline and a formal opinion of value may or may not be required. Contact us to discuss what you are trying to accomplish and we will confirm whether a full appraisal or a consulting engagement is the right tool.
