An advisor-prepared valuation from the sales that actually set your value.
Online estimates cannot see what determines price in Naples: the water in front of the home, the dock behind it, the floor and stack in a tower, the quality of a renovation, the health of an association. A valuation from Alpizar & Company is prepared by the broker who would list the property, from closed, pending and expired comparables in your specific building or street, and delivered in a private conversation. It is complimentary and carries no obligation.

Why Automated Estimates Miss in Naples
Valuation models are built on averages, and Naples' waterfront market is made of exceptions. Two homes on the same street can differ by millions depending on whether one faces the bay and the other a canal, whether the dock accommodates a 40-foot boat or a 25-foot one, whether the lot is buildable to today's code. In a tower, a fifth-floor and a fifteenth-floor residence with identical floor plans can trade 40 percent apart. Models cannot see any of it. They also lag: they learn from closings that happened months ago, while your value is set by what is under contract today and what is competing with you tomorrow. If you would like a preliminary figure, our instant estimate is available — treat it as a starting point, not a listing price.
What a Valuation From Us Includes
A written range and a recommended list price. The comparable sales we relied on and why each one is or is not a true comparison. The competing listings a buyer will see alongside yours. Our read on absorption — how many buyers are active in your segment and how long similar properties are taking to sell. And a candid recommendation on timing and preparation: what to do before listing, what to leave alone, and whether now is the right moment or a few months from now would serve you better.
Valuations for Estates, Trusts and Planning
Not every valuation is a prelude to a sale. We prepare broker opinions of value for owners weighing a renovation, for families settling an estate, for trustees and attorneys, and for owners who simply want to know where they stand. The same rigor applies, and the same confidentiality.
Home Valuation in Naples — Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are online home value estimates in Naples?
Broad at best. Automated models cannot account for water frontage, dock and Gulf access, floor and view in a tower, renovation quality or association health, and they lag the market by months. They are useful for a preliminary range and unreliable as a listing price.
What is the difference between a valuation and an appraisal?
An appraisal is a formal opinion of value by a licensed appraiser, typically ordered by a lender. A broker valuation is prepared by the advisor who would market the property and reflects what buyers are paying today, including competing inventory and demand. For pricing a sale, the broker valuation is the more useful of the two; for lending, estate or legal purposes, an appraisal may be required.
Do I have to list my home to get a valuation?
No. Valuations are complimentary and carry no obligation. Many owners request one to plan a renovation, settle an estate, or simply understand their position before deciding anything.
How long does a valuation take?
We deliver a written valuation within 48 hours of a walk-through or video tour. Owners out of state or abroad can complete the process entirely by video.
What affects the value of a waterfront home in Naples?
Water type and frontage (Gulf, bay, canal), view and exposure, dock and lift capacity, bridge clearance to the Gulf, lot size and buildability, elevation and flood zone, renovation quality, and in condominiums the floor, stack, building age, milestone inspection status and reserve funding.
