We did a reserve study and it was completed in very quickly due to the HOA's request and was a more than fair price. Will be using them again for reserve studies going forward.

Our condo association has worked with FPAT on a number of projects from our SIRS, wind mitigation and property evaluation. In all projects, we found FPAT to be very thorough in their analysis and reports, very professional and easy to work with. On this last point, they truly listen to your feedback and also challenge us, as the condo association, to ensure we are making the best informed decision. Kudos to FPAT and Eric Dixon, who we worked with diligently on our SIRS.

Why Tampa Associations Trust FPAT

Managing a community in Tampa Bay comes with unique challenges—from navigating the wind-borne debris regions of Hillsborough County to budgeting for the rising costs of coastal construction.

Hundreds of local Tampa associations choose FPAT because:

  • 100% In-House Experts: We never use subcontractors. Your appraisal is performed by a certified FPAT employee who knows the difference between a South Tampa high-rise and a Carrollwood HOA.

  • Live Board Support: We don’t just email a PDF. We are available to Zoom into your Board Meeting to present the report and answer questions about your Replacement Cost Valuation (RCV).

  • Compliant & Accurate: We ensure your report meets Florida Statute 718.111 requirements, using local labor rates to prevent co-insurance penalties.

Expert Note: “Market Value” is not “Replacement Cost.” If your current appraisal is based on what units sell for rather than what it costs to rebuild them, your association could be severely underinsured

Our Process: From Inspection to Peace of Mind

We know Board Members are busy. We’ve streamlined our insurance appraisal process into three simple steps:

01
Group 142

Site Visit & Analysis

Our appraisers visit your Tampa property to measure and assess all insurable structures, including clubhouses, pools, and perimeter walls.

02
Group 143

Cost Calculation

We utilize industry-standard reconstruction cost data, adjusted for current Florida hurricane building codes and local variances.

03
Group 144

Delivery & Review

You receive a comprehensive report that your insurance agent can use immediately to secure the right coverage.

The FPAT Advantage: Compliance Meets Clarity

We specialize in helping Florida Condo and Homeowners Associations meet their statutory obligations with zero stress.

  • Statutory Compliance: We strictly adhere to Florida Statute 718.111(11), which requires updated appraisals every 36 months to ensure adequate property insurance.

  • Localized Tampa Data: We adjust for Tampa-specific labor rates and material costs, which differ significantly from Miami or Orlando.

  • Audit-Proof Reports: Our reports are defensible, detailed, and accepted by every major insurance carrier in Florida.

Why Tampa Bay Associations Are Different

  • The “Sinkhole Alley” Factor: While not as prevalent as in the past, parts of Hillsborough County still require specialized foundation assessments. Our appraisals factor in the high cost of modern deep-foundation requirements for Tampa high-rises and HOAs.

  • AE and VE Flood Zones: From Davis Islands to Westshore, Tampa associations face complex flood insurance requirements. We provide the “Hazard vs. Flood” value split that insurance agents need to accurately place your coverage.

  • Vertical Construction in Downtown/Water Street: The construction boom in areas like Water Street and Downtown Tampa has driven up local labor costs. We use hyper-local Tampa data to ensure your RCV (Replacement Cost Valuation) isn’t based on outdated or generic figures.

More Than Just Appraisals: Strengthening Your Financial Future

An accurate insurance appraisal is often the first step in a larger financial health check for your association. To fully protect your community, consider how your appraisal connects with your long-term planning:

FAQ:
About Condo Appraisals in Tampa

How often does our Tampa Condo need an insurance appraisal?
Florida law requires an update at least every 36 months. However, with rapid inflation in construction materials, we recommend reviewing values every 24 months to avoid gaps in coverage.
What is the difference between an Insurance Appraisal and a Reserve Study?
An Insurance Appraisal determines the cost to rebuild your property after a total loss (fire, hurricane). A Reserve Study calculates how much money you need to save to replace aging components (roofs, painting) over time. Both are critical for financial safety.
Does FPAT service all of Hillsborough County?
Yes. We are locally based and service Tampa, St. Petersburg, Clearwater, and the surrounding areas.
