Leading the Appraisal Industry through Innovation and Expertise

Our Story

Our story began in 2005 in Australia. Opteon saw an opportunity to revolutionize the valuation industry by investing in innovative technology and uniting a national network of industry experts under the same vision. Our investment in technology and people is what shaped the industry into what it is today.

Today, we continue to expand and excel at what we do; reaching new countries, developing new technologies, and pushing the boundaries of what we can achieve in every market, every day. In 2019, we entered the American market and created two entities under the Opteon name: Opteon Appraisal, Inc and Opteon AMC, Inc.  This has allowed us to tap into more markets across the US and fulfill rapid turn times for our customers.
