Residential Appraisal Services
Divorce Appraisals
Independent valuations for equitable asset division.
Whether a marital home is being sold, one spouse is purchasing the other's interest, or property value is being considered during settlement negotiations, an independent residential appraisal provides an objective foundation for informed decisions. Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides professional divorce appraisals throughout Houston and surrounding counties, backed by over 25 years of residential appraisal experience.
Our appraisals are prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), with careful attention to confidentiality, impartiality, and well-supported market value conclusions. We work with homeowners, attorneys, and other parties who need credible property valuations for divorce settlements and related legal proceedings.
Estate & Probate Appraisals
Fair market valuation for estate settlement and probate.
Settling an estate often requires an independent determination of a property's fair market value. Whether you're an executor, trustee, attorney, or family member handling an estate, Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides professional residential property valuations throughout Houston and surrounding counties. With over 25 years of appraisal experience, we understand the importance of accurate, well-supported valuations during estate administration and probate proceedings.
We also specialize in retrospective date-of-death appraisals, which establish a property's fair market value as of a specific date in the past. These valuations are frequently needed when determining the tax basis of inherited real estate or addressing estate-related legal and financial matters. Our appraisal reports are prepared in accordance with the Uniform Standards of Professional Appraisal Practice (USPAP), with careful attention to accuracy, confidentiality, and professional independence.
Pre-Listing Appraisals
Pre-sale market value assessment.
Selling your home begins with understanding what it's worth in today's market. A professional pre-listing appraisal provides an independent, well-supported opinion of market value before your property goes on the market. Flores Real Estate Appraisals helps homeowners throughout Houston and surrounding counties make informed pricing decisions, backed by over 25 years of residential appraisal experience.
Unlike automated online estimates or a real estate agent's Comparative Market Analysis (CMA), a professional appraisal includes a property inspection, detailed market research, and analysis of relevant comparable sales. The resulting valuation can help you and your real estate agent establish a realistic asking price, evaluate potential improvements, and approach negotiations with greater confidence.
PMI Removal Appraisals
Support removal of private mortgage insurance.
If you're paying private mortgage insurance (PMI) on your home, you may be eligible to have it removed once you've established sufficient equity. As property values change, homeowners sometimes discover that their homes are worth considerably more than when they originally purchased them. A professional residential appraisal can help establish your home's current market value and provide useful information when evaluating your options for PMI removal.
Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides independent residential property valuations throughout Houston and surrounding counties, backed by over 25 years of appraisal experience. Because mortgage servicers have specific requirements for PMI cancellation, we recommend confirming your lender's appraisal requirements before ordering an independent appraisal. Our goal is to help you understand your property's market value so you can make informed decisions about potentially reducing your monthly mortgage expenses.
Homeowner & Investor Appraisals
Single-family homes, multi-family homes, condos, townhomes and luxury properties
Whether you're a homeowner seeking an independent opinion of your property's market value or an investor evaluating a potential real estate purchase, having reliable information is essential to making informed decisions.

Our appraisal process includes a thorough property inspection, accurate measurements, and detailed analysis of relevant comparable sales and current market conditions.

Measurement Services
The Foundation of an Accurate Fair Market Value
Accurate square footage is essential when buying, selling, or evaluating residential real estate. Incorrect measurements can affect listing information, pricing decisions, and the reliability of property comparisons. Flores Real Estate Appraisals provides professional residential measurement services throughout Houston and surrounding counties, helping homeowners, real estate agents, and other professionals obtain dependable property measurements.
With over 25 years of residential appraisal experience, we understand the importance of correctly identifying and measuring a home's gross living area (GLA). Our measurements are personally performed by an experienced, state-certified residential appraiser using the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) Z765 measurement standard, as applicable. Whether you're preparing a home for sale, verifying reported square footage, or resolving a measurement discrepancy, our services provide reliable information to support informed real estate decisions.
