Apollo Blog & Highlights

There are lots of viable rental properties available on Craigslist, but beware of the rising number of scammers. A typical scam happens when someone steals a picture of a home for sale from another website, then lists the house using those photos on Craigslist as a house for rent. The scammer makes up a story about being out of state and requests the renter wire funds via a service. You can guess what happens next….

Trusting data from Zillow is like trusting WebMD.com instead of visiting a doctor.  Doctors cringe when a patient says: “according to WebMD.com  I have a cold…” just like we cringe when a client says: “Zillow.com says the house is worth $50K more…”  We cringe because we know that Zillow and Trulia data is inaccurate and out of date, while the MLS system we rely upon is updated every 15 to 30 minutes.

The team at Apollo Realty has its finger on the pulse of the Space Coast real estate market. Every day, we know which properties have just listed, or just reduced, or have just come under contract. We also know which comparative properties (or “comps”) an appraiser is most likely to consider. We also know the particulars of a neighborhood, all of which factors in to our ability to help our clients make a reasonable estimate of what a viable purchase or sales price might be.
